The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) has condemned the firing incident involving the vehicle of Bollywood star Tiger Shroff and has demanded security for him and his family.
The incident occurred around 7 PM on Sunday in the Juhu area of Mumbai as Tiger Shroff was leaving a football club in his car. Unidentified individuals opened fire on his vehicle. According to the police, five rounds were fired.
In the incident, Tiger Shroff escaped gunshot injuries, but his driver, Firdous, was wounded in the left hand. Mr. Shroff also sustained minor injuries to his hand from "gunpowder and shards of glass."
This is the second such incident targeting a prominent figure in the Indian film industry. Previously, a similar event occurred involving renowned filmmaker Rohit Shetty. The cine employees' federation has called these repeated incidents alarming.
Following the event, Eknath Shinde, the Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, visited Tiger Shroff's residence on Sunday night to inquire about his well-being and assure him of the government's support. He condemned the attack and stated that the government would not tolerate such acts.
The Mumbai Police have formed 15 teams to investigate the shooting. They have recorded the statement of Tiger Shroff's driver, and the investigation to identify and apprehend the perpetrators is ongoing.
