Tiger Shroff reaches home under police protection after shooting, watch

Bollywood star Tiger Shroff was photographed on Monday with bandages covering his shoulder, chest, and right arm in his home, following Sunday's firing incident in Juhu. Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde paid a late-night visit to the actor's family. Police stated earlier that Tiger Shroff did not receive a bullet wound during the attack.

The visible injuries in the photos have not been detailed. Eknath Shinde, after meeting the Shroff family, termed the event serious and unacceptable, and cautioned against reviving gang violence in Mumbai. "Mumbai has experienced a period of intense gang warfare previously. The police successfully controlled that situation," he asserted.

He assured the Shroff family that the government and Mumbai Police would support them and address their security concerns. Shinde informed the Shroffs that five rounds of gunfire were reportedly exchanged, the driver sustained a bullet injury, and Tiger Shroff narrowly escaped. Inquiries into links to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang were made, but police have not confirmed this.

Shinde urged anyone receiving threatening calls or messages to immediately inform the police. The Mumbai Police believe the Bishnoi gang's modus operandi matches the claim. Tiger Shroff was reportedly practicing football at Pushpa Narsee Park Sunday evening when the attack occurred. Police suspect the assailants meticulously studied his routine and waited outside the park gate until he arrived.

Five rounds of gunfire were fired, injuring Shroff's driver, Firdosh, and another individual near the actor's vehicle. Both were hospitalized. The attackers fled on a motorcycle towards SV Road, leaving the bike at Andheri (West) railway station. Fifteen teams have been deployed to locate them, but no arrests have been made yet. The case is expected to be handed over to the Mumbai Police Crime Branch.
