Tiger Shroff Assassination Bid Updates: Tiger Shroff Safe, Driver Shot In Chest After Firing In Mumbai

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis instructed Mumbai Police to carry out a thorough investigation into the firing incident involving Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff in the Juhu area of Mumbai on Sunday (October 18). Fadnavis contacted the Mumbai Police Commissioner to inquire about the incident and ordered the police to take stringent action against those responsible, according to Chief Minister's Office sources quoted by ANI.

Tiger Shroff was unhurt following the alleged firing by three motorcycle riders, who reportedly injured the actor's driver and an autorickshaw driver. Both victims sustained injuries, with police confirming that Tiger did not suffer a bullet wound. Deputy Commissioner of Police, Western Region II, Dr. Mohit Kumar Garg, affirmed that Tiger Shroff was safe and not injured.

The actor had visited Jamnalal Bajaj Ground for a football match before the incident allegedly occurred as he returned from the game. Three men on motorcycles are suspected of opening fire, shattering the windows of Tiger's vehicle and causing glass fragments to hit the actor. While the circumstances leading to the incident are still under investigation, Fadnavis directed the police to take swift action against those responsible, and the Bollywood industry has been threatened by alleged perpetrator Lawrence Bishnoi.
