A video circulating on social media shows several rounds being fired at Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff’s car in Mumbai on Sunday evening. Police said the incident occurred around 7pm near Pushpa Park in Juhu, close to Jamnabai Narsee School, as Shroff was returning from playing football at a club.
The video appears to show two assailants shooting at Shroff’s vehicle before fleeing on a motorcycle alongside a third man. One of them can be seen firing repeatedly, while the second also appears to try to open fire. HT could not independently verify the authenticity of the visuals.

Tiger Shroff attack bid
Soon after the shooting, two alleged operatives of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, Anil Pandit and Harman Sandhu, claimed responsibility for the attack in posts on various social media platforms.
“We had called and explained to him (Tiger Shroff) but he did not understand. So today, we explained to him rather well that whoever in the Mumbai film industry does not abide by what we say or work with Salman Khan are next in line. Wait and watch,” they said in the post in Hindi, which was accompanied by a voice message.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Mohit Kumar Garg said Shroff suffered minor abrasions, while his driver, Firdos, sustained a gunshot wound to his left hand. Both were taken to Nanavati Hospital for treatment. Shroff was later discharged, while his driver was admitted as he might require surgery for the gunshot injury, hospital sources told HT earlier.
Autorickshaw driver Umesh Chavan, 35, was taken to Cooper Hospital after being shot in the chest. A hospital spokesperson said he had a bullet entry wound “2 cm below his left nipple” and was admitted to the surgery department. Doctors said his condition was stable.
