Fire in theatre

New Delhi July 12. The memories of the 1997 Uphaar fire tragedy were revived today when a transformer inside the Alpana theatre complex in South Delhi burst into flames.

The blaze erupted at around 5:10 p.m. during the screening of `Devdas'. The theatre was immediately evacuated as a safety measure, fire sources said.
