Tiger Shroff shooting: Purported audio claims responsibility

A reported shooting attack on actor Tiger Shroff in Mumbai’s Juhu area on Sunday evening, October 18, injured his driver and an autorickshaw driver, India Today reported, citing police. A purported audio claiming responsibility surfaced afterwards, but police had yet to verify its authenticity or that of an earlier social media post.

The speaker identifies himself as Anil Pandit and claims an association with gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. He takes responsibility for what he describes as an assassination attempt and threatens people in the film industry who associate with Salman Khan. The speaker’s identity, claimed gang connection and assertion of responsibility remain unverified.

The recording appeared to repeat claims made in the earlier social media post. A police official said investigators were still reconstructing the sequence of events leading to the firing. The reported injuries establish harm to two drivers; the unauthenticated claims do not establish who ordered or carried out the attack.
