The incident took place at the shooting location at Korolberia under Leather Complex police station limits.
"We are looking into the matter. The body has been sent for post-mortem and we are waiting for the report. Primarily, it seems that he died of electrocution. The scene was being shot around a bamboo bush where lights were fitted to illuminate the objects and the main characters. He probably touched one of the live wires," the officer added.
Alam was taken to a nearby hospital where he was declared brought dead. The shooting of the film has been stopped, according to the police.
Pari, a horror love story is directed by debutant Prosit Roy. It also stars Bengali actor Parambrata Chatterjee.
