Tiger Shroff’s Shooters Watched Him a Week Earlier at Juhu Ground

· Entertainment · Indian Express

Three men accused of opening fire at Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff outside a Juhu football ground on Sunday had visited the same location a week earlier on October 11. Police CCTV footage and call data records show the suspects lingered near the Pushpa Narsee Ground hoping to target the actor, who plays football there every Sunday between 5 pm and 7 pm. Investigators suspect the attackers left on October 11 because Shroff did not turn up to play that day. On October 18, the suspects arrived around 4.30 pm and waited for two-and-a-half hours before Shroff emerged at 7 pm and the shooting occurred. Police believe the intention of the shooters was to kill Shroff and his driver, Firdous Ibrahim Baloch, who sustained injuries during the incident.

Why it matters

The incident highlights heightened security concerns for prominent Bollywood figures following a shift in the underworld targeting actors. Investigators are probing the involvement of outside gunmen in the targeted shooting.
