Tiger Shroff, the action‑star known for his high‑octane stunts, found himself in a real‑life thriller last Sunday night when a burst of gunfire erupted from a motorcycle in Mumbai's Juhu. \n
\nThree unidentified gunmen opened fire as the actor was leaving the local football club around 7 pm; five rounds were fired, and while Tiger escaped with a bruised hand and a bandage, his driver suffered serious injuries. \n
\nShatrughan Sinha, former MP and veteran actor, blasted the incident on X, calling it "shocking" and demanding better protection for the film fraternity. "Tiger was lucky to go unhurt," Sinha wrote, adding that the driver was badly injured and that state leaders were visibly concerned. \n
\nDeputy CM Eknath Shinde didn’t wait for the press; he swooped into Tiger’s home that night to assure the actor and his mother of state support. Shinde said five rounds were fired, and that the actor had left with injuries to his left hand from gunpowder and glass shards. "No form of threat will be tolerated," he told reporters. \n
\nPolice registered a case against the three culprits under Sections 109(1) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, and Sections 3 and 25 of the Arms Act, and are actively hunting the suspects. The incident underscores a grim reality: Bollywood’s brightest are not immune to street violence, and the industry is now racing to tighten security protocols for its stars.
