Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff escaped unhurt after unidentified assailants opened fire in Mumbai’s Juhu area on Sunday evening, October 18. Two people were injured in the incident, including the actor’s driver, Firdaus, who sustained a gunshot injury to his hand, and another person identified as Chauhan, who is undergoing treatment. Mumbai Police has launched an investigation into the firing.

The incident comes nearly two years after former Maharashtra minister and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Baba Siddiqui was shot dead in Mumbai’s Bandra area on October 12, 2024. The Lawrence Bishnoi gang had claimed responsibility for Siddiqui’s murder, citing his close association with Salman Khan.

Now, an audio message claiming responsibility for the firing involving Tiger Shroff has issued another threat against people in the film industry who work with the actor.
