Tiger Shroff says he is in deep shock; arrests rise to 11

Tiger Shroff is reportedly deeply shaken after gunmen targeted his car in Mumbai’s Juhu neighbourhood on October 18. He called the episode a “life-threatening attack” and wondered aloud why someone would want to harm him.

The shooting happened around 7 pm as Tiger was on his way back from a football session. Two men on a motorcycle reportedly fired five to six shots at his car and then sped away. Tiger, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, was not hurt, but his driver and a vlogger sustained injuries.

According to NDTV, Tiger told investigators he is still struggling to process what happened. “I am in deep shock. I do not wish to say anything right now.

Who would want to carry out such a life-threatening attack on me, and why,” he said. Questioning the reason behind the firing, he added, “I have no enmity with anyone... so why was I attacked”. The actor is reportedly still reeling from the incident and has not yet given his formal statement to the police.
