One person was killed and four people were injured as part of Mumbai's famous Esplanade Mansion, formerly known as Watson Hotel, an endangered world heritage building, collapsed on Friday.
Firemen cleared debris after a part of the 119-year-old landmark building crumbled.
The building is one of India's oldest Victorian-era cast iron structures.
On June 21, US-based World Monuments Watch listed it among endangered monuments along with author Ernest Hemingway's house in Cuba, Nepal's Patan royal palace and Bangladesh's Sonargaon-Panam complex.
