MUMBAI: Three unidentified motorcycle-borne assailants fired seven rounds at a car carrying Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff and his driver in Juhu around 7 pm on Sunday, injuring the driver. A fan who was standing nearby to catch a glimpse of the actor also sustained a bullet injury.
Juhu police said Shroff had attended a birthday celebration at Pushpa Park, also known as Jamnabai Nursery, and was preparing to leave when the firing occurred. Police said the three assailants, dressed in white shirts, fled towards SV Road and Vile Parle railway station.
The seven rounds were fired at the actor's car, which was around 350 metres from Juhu police station and Pushpa Park. Driver Firdosh suffered a bullet injury to his left hand and was taken to Nanavati Hospital.
Umesh Charan (35), who was standing nearby, sustained a bullet injury and was admitted to Cooper Hospital. Police initially said Shroff had suffered slight abrasions from glass fragments after the car's windows shattered, but DCP (West Zone 2) Mohit Garg said the actor was not injured.
Police were registering an FIR and seeking details from Shroff about any recent threat calls or warnings.
