    Mumbai Crime Branch reveals Tiger Shroff was not the primary target in recent shooting incident

    The Mumbai Crime Branch has officially clarified that Bollywood star Tiger Shroff was not the original target in the alarming firing incident that took place on October 18, 2026. According to investigators, the three suspects had initially set their sights on another prominent celebrity but were forced to pivot their plans. The group abandoned their original target due to the individual’s high-level security detail, ultimately choosing to target Shroff because they perceived him as a more accessible option. During the attack, the assailants fired five to six rounds at the actor’s vehicle. Fortunately, Shroff remained unhurt, though his driver, Firdous, and a bystander driving an autorickshaw sustained injuries.

    Authorities acted swiftly to apprehend the suspects, identified as 22-year-old Hritik Kumar from Begusarai, Bihar, along with 18-year-old Sonipat residents Rehan alias Sukka and Phool Singh. The trio was arrested in Kota, Rajasthan, on October 19, 2026, while allegedly attempting to flee toward Nepal via Delhi. DCP Raj Tilak Roshan confirmed that the suspects were in the process of being transported to Mumbai under a transit warrant to face serious charges, including attempted murder and violations of the Arms Act.

    Interrogations have provided a chilling look into the planning behind the attack. The accused reportedly conducted reconnaissance at a Juhu football ground on October 11, where they recorded a video of the actor to obtain a “green signal” from their handlers. The case is now being handled by the Anti-Extortion Cell, which is actively probing potential links to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and an alleged handler known as Anil Pandit. In response to the security breach, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has vowed that the state will track down the masterminds no matter where they are hiding, while Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has visited the victims’ families to personally ensure their safety as the investigation continues.

    Mumbai Police reveals Tiger Shroff was not the original target in recent firing incident

    A shocking revelation has surfaced in the recent firing incident involving Bollywood star Tiger Shroff. According to the Mumbai Crime Branch, the three shooters apprehended in connection with the case were not initially targeting the actor. Investigators disclosed that the group had originally set their sights on another prominent Bollywood celebrity, but were ultimately forced to abandon their plan due to the star’s high-level security detail. Seeing an easier opportunity, the shooters shifted their focus to Tiger Shroff, leading to the terrifying ordeal that took place outside a Juhu football club on Sunday evening.

    The incident occurred around 7 pm as Tiger Shroff was departing the club. While the actor miraculously escaped direct gunshot injuries, his driver sustained wounds during the attack. Following a swift investigation, Mumbai Police tracked the three suspects to Kota, Rajasthan, where they were arrested while traveling on a train. A local court has granted a 48-hour transit remand, allowing the Maharashtra Police to bring the accused back to Mumbai for rigorous questioning.

    The transport of the suspects involved a calculated ‘Plan B’ strategy executed by the Mumbai Police. Rather than moving the accused overnight, authorities held them securely at the Railway Colony police station in Kota under a heavy security cordon maintained by both Mumbai and Rajasthan police teams. SHO Ramswaroop Meena confirmed that the legal formalities for the transit remand are complete as the suspects are being moved to Mumbai.

    The case has been officially registered under Sections 109(1) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), alongside Sections 3 and 25 of the Arms Act. As the investigation into this targeted attack continues, the authorities are looking into the motivations behind the shooters’ original plan and how they were able to orchestrate such a brazen attempt in one of Mumbai’s busiest areas.

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde visited the Shroff residence shortly after, confirming that Tiger sustained minor injuries to his hand from glass fragments and gunpowder and assuring the family that the government would not tolerate threats against public figures.

    In a major breakthrough, the Mumbai Police have successfully apprehended three suspects in Kota, Rajasthan, in connection with the attack.

Meanwhile, Rakesh Bedi, who is running for a position on the committee, emphasized his desire to drive necessary changes within the organization.

    The internal conflict within CINTAA, which represents a vast number of film and television artists, has been building since August. The disputes, which involve prominent names like Upasana Singh alongside Dhillon and Kolhapure, center on critical issues such as financial transparency, leadership accountability, and the maintenance of official records. Actors like Ayub Khan and Kanwarjit Paintal also weighed in, stressing that regardless of the ongoing debate, it remains vital for the association to have a stable, independent committee to provide clear direction and protect the future of its members.
