Mumbai Police Issues Security Advisory to Bollywood Stars After Firing at Tiger Shroff’s Residence

Mumbai: Mumbai Police has advised prominent Bollywood actors to avoid crowded public places and refrain from mingling with fans in public spaces following the firing incident at actor Tiger Shroff’s residence and revelations of alleged reconnaissance at several celebrities’ homes.

A senior police official said the advisory was issued as a precautionary measure amid threats reportedly received by several film personalities from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Actors have also been urged to stay away from large gatherings to ensure their safety.

According to Mumbai Crime Branch sources, the accused in the October 18 firing incident had allegedly conducted reconnaissance of several celebrity residences, including those of Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar, before targeting Shroff.

Investigators reportedly found that the shooters were instructed to target celebrities with relatively weaker security arrangements. The accused allegedly used auto-rickshaws to conduct the reconnaissance.

Three motorcycle-borne men had opened fire at Shroff’s car in Mumbai’s Juhu area. The Lawrence Bishnoi gang subsequently claimed responsibility for the attack through a social media post.

The incident has triggered concern across the film industry, with several celebrities, including Amaal Mallik, Mika Singh, Vidyut Jammwal, Shatrughan Sinha and Ravi Kishan, expressing their concerns over the security of film personalities.
