The match, attended by several personalities from the film and television industries, took place at Pushpa Park. Eighteen players participated in the match, including Tiger, Aparshakti Khurana, Abhimanyu Dassani, Caesar Gonsalves, Abhishek Bajaj, and Karanveer Mehra. The shooting incident occurred as fans gathered around Tiger’s car, with three men reportedly firing shots. Tiger managed to escape unharmed, while his driver and a staff member sustained injuries. Karanveer Mehra, who was present at the football match, recounted the panic that ensued after the shooting. He described the confusion as children were attending a birthday party nearby, and people were taking photographs. Karanveer mentioned that the situation became clear when gunshots were heard, leading to security personnel responding and the police being alerted. By then, Tiger had already left the venue with his driver. Tiger's father, Jackie Shroff, confirmed that his son was safe at the police station.",
