Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff reportedly escaped unharmed after unidentified attackers opened fire at his vehicle in Mumbai according to Indian media reports published on Sunday, October 18, 2026. His vehicle was reportedly damaged while his driver and an auto-rickshaw driver sustained injuries.
The incident allegedly took place in Mumbai’s Juhu area as Shroff was returning after a football match. Reports said three unidentified men riding a motorcycle fired at the vehicle before leaving the scene.

According to media accounts, investigators recovered five bullet casings from the location. Mumbai police were reportedly examining the circumstances of the incident and working to identify the suspects.

Police also clarified, according to the reports that Shroff was safe and had not suffered any injuries. Information about the condition of the two injured drivers was not provided in the supplied report.
The incident drew further attention after a group identifying itself as the Lawrence Bishnoi gang reportedly claimed responsibility in a social media statement. Gangster Anil Pandit allegedly made the claim on behalf of the group.

The statement reportedly alleged that Shroff had been targeted because of his friendship with Bollywood actor Salman Khan. However, this explanation remains an allegation and independent confirmation of the group’s responsibility or its stated motive was not available in the report.
The same statement reportedly warned that people close to Salman Khan could face similar attacks in the future. The authenticity of these claims and their connection to the shooting remain matters for investigation.

The reported incident has raised security concerns surrounding Bollywood personalities particularly given previous threats directed at Salman Khan and other entertainment figures.
Authorities are investigating the shooting while the identities of the alleged attackers and the motive behind the incident remain unconfirmed.

The gang’s claim and the alleged motive have been attributed to media reports and have not been presented as independently verified facts.
