Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff’s spokesperson has rejected reports claiming that the actor questioned why he had been targeted in a firing incident in Mumbai, describing the alleged statement as completely untrue.
The clarification came on October 25, after reports circulated that Shroff was deeply shaken by the incident and had questioned the motive behind the attack. The actor’s representative said he had not made the statements attributed to him, challenging the accuracy of reports about his reaction.
The development has added a new twist to the case, which has prompted a police investigation and raised concerns about the safety of the actor and those around him.
Spokesperson Rejects Reports About Tiger Shroff’s Statement
Reports published earlier had claimed that Shroff was struggling to come to terms with the incident and had expressed confusion about why anyone would want to target him.
The statements attributed to the actor suggested that he was in shock and did not wish to speak extensively about the matter. They also claimed that he had questioned why he was attacked despite having no known personal enmity with anyone.
However, his spokesperson subsequently denied that Shroff had made such comments.
The clarification is significant because the earlier claims were presented as an account of the actor’s conversation with investigators. With his representative disputing the statements, the alleged remarks should not be treated as a confirmed account of Shroff’s reaction.
The actor has largely remained away from public discussion of the incident as the investigation continues.
What Happened in the Mumbai Firing Incident?
The incident reportedly took place on the evening of October 18 in Mumbai’s Juhu area. Shroff was returning after playing football when two men on a motorcycle allegedly opened fire at his BMW.
The actor, who was seated in the front passenger seat, escaped without reported injuries. His driver and a bystander were reportedly injured during the incident.
Reports said several rounds were fired before the suspects fled on a motorcycle. Shroff was also reported to have helped transport his injured driver for medical assistance.
The incident triggered an investigation by Mumbai Police, with officers examining the circumstances surrounding the shooting and attempting to establish who was involved and why the actor’s vehicle was targeted.
Police Investigation and Arrests
Investigators have reportedly made multiple arrests in connection with the case. The two alleged shooters were identified as Phool Singh and Rehan Rahisuddin Ansari, both 18, while another accused was identified as Hritik Kumar, also known as Roshan.
Police have also reportedly recovered firearms believed to be connected to the incident. Investigators are examining the alleged roles of other individuals and whether the suspects received assistance before or after the shooting.
As the investigation developed, reports indicated that the number of people arrested or detained in connection with the case had reached 11.
Authorities are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the attack. The motive has not been conclusively established in the publicly available information, and allegations about possible links to organised groups remain subject to investigation.
Questions Remain as Investigation Continues
The spokesperson’s denial highlights the importance of distinguishing between verified statements and claims attributed to unnamed sources during an ongoing investigation.
While earlier reports described Shroff as being deeply affected by the incident, his representative has specifically disputed the remarks attributed to him about why he was attacked.
The police investigation remains central to determining the circumstances of the shooting, the roles of the accused and the possible motive.
For now, the confirmed public development is the actor’s spokesperson rejecting the reported statement. Further clarity about the incident is expected to depend on official investigative findings and any statements the actor or his representatives choose to release.
