Police in India have detained three suspects following a shooting incident targeting Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff in Mumbai’s upscale Juhu district on Sunday evening.

Assailants on a motorcycle opened fire on the 36-year-old actor’s vehicle as he was leaving a venue. While Shroff escaped without gunshot injuries, two people, including his driver, sustained wounds and were admitted to a local hospital for treatment.

Mumbai Police Deputy Commissioner Mohit Garg confirmed that Shroff is safe under police protection and that multiple specialized teams have been deployed to investigate the attack.

Authorities in Rajasthan detained three suspects at Kota railway station while they were traveling on a Pune-Jaipur train.

Police Superintendent Tejaswani Gautam stated that preliminary questioning revealed two of the detained individuals have prior criminal records involving theft and firearms offenses.

Investigators are verifying claims made on social media by individuals alleging ties to the Lawrence Bishnoi criminal network, though an official motive has not been established. Further police inquiries remain ongoing.
