A 30-member film crew from Kerala, including award-winning actor Manju Warrier, has been rescued after they were stranded in a remote Himachal Pradesh village following heavy rains and floods for the past few days. The plight of the crew came to light after the 'How Old Are You' actress contacted her family in Kerala through a satellite phone on Monday night to inform that they had been stranded in Chatru village in Balh area of Mandi district following multiple landslides due to recent heavy rains.

The crew has been camping for two weeks at Chatru, a scenic hamlet in the Himalayan valley and located over 80 km away from Manali for the shooting of Sanal Kumar Sasidharan's upcoming movie, Manju Warrier's actor-brother Madhu Warrier told television channels.
