So, just when the city was buzzing with weekend football, a burst of gunfire cut through the evening in Juhu, turning the usual street chatter into frantic whispers. And the lights flickered. The shot‑laden blast came from a motorcycle, and the vehicle that caught the first volley was none other than Tiger Shroff’s car, tipping a few minutes after he left the local football ground.
Three men on bikes, allegedly linked to the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi circle, opened fire, striking not the star but his driver, who suffered a head injury that required immediate medical attention. Shroff himself escaped unhurt, but the incident sent a ripple of dread through the city’s nightlife.
Ranvir Shorey took to X in a single post that read: "Shocking, and disgusting! Hope everyone is safe, @iTIGERSHROFF @bindasbhidu! No mercy for the perpetrators, @MumbaiPolice! This is outrageous!" His tone was one of disbelief, mirroring a city that seemed to have lost its calm.
Filmmaker Rahul Dholakia, in his own rant, slammed the police and questioned the state’s safety net. "What kind of law and order is this?" he wrote, adding, "The ones who are harmless are sent to jail – the ones who are criminals are shooting innocents on the street!" The lines were a direct challenge to authorities for jarring accountability.
Poonam Pandey, who was soaking in a Durga pandal that evening, confessed to ANI that the news hit her like a thunderclap. "I can't fathom why shots were fired at him," she said, adding, "I am even scared to speak about this on camera." After her interview, a self‑styled ‘Anil Pandit’ slipped an audio into the feed, claiming responsibility and threatening anyone associated with Salman Khan, reviving an old feud that has loomed over Bollywood for years.
