“Yes, we did receive a threat call and hence evacuated the offices as a precautionary measure,” says Star India’s executive vice president marketing & communications Gayatri Yadav.
The media group has two offices in Mumbai, one in Mahalaxmi and the other in Lower Parel. While the threat call was for one of the offices, employees in both the offices were asked to leave early in the evening (at around 4:30 pm.)
“We were asked to leave without any notice. We were told that there was a bomb scare,” informs an employee.
