At least two top floors of a 22-storeyed building here that houses the offices of film stars Hritik Roshan and Ajay Devgn were gutted in a major fire Friday, officials said.

There were no casualties in the blaze on the 21st floor that later spread to the 22nd floor of the building in suburban Andheri West, officials of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation Disaster Control said.

The fire - the cause of which is not clear yet - broke out around 10 a.m.


In the following Table, the units of water moment(WM) are 10^19.05 N-m.
CG denotes centre of gravity of the world's dams.
Eq MM denotes the magnitude of the dam surge in equivalent seismic moment units, Moment Magnitude, MM.
The earthquake data is from USGS website and EMSC website. 





   The surge wave of the world's dams was caused by a change in the contents of the world's reservoirs of 246 billion cubic meters(BCM) to meet the water needs at the instant the event happened. The event was the top two floors of the 22 floor tower catching fire- a major blaze when the dam surge of Love and Raleigh waves hit the tower foundation at 4:16:12.41 hrs UTC on 18 July 2014 as the surge was passing the tower from the damquake Western Turkey to that off the east coast of Honshu, Japan. The water pressure head change at the centre of gravity of the world's dams at (25.33, 111.45) was 246 million kilometers at the instant. These assertions are made applying the precautionary principle.
