Unidentified bike-borne assailants fire at Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff’s car in Mumbai’s Juhu area, injuring his driver and at least one other person. Shroff escapes with minor injuries or unhurt reports, while witnesses describe chaos as people run for safety. Mumbai police begin an investigation and deploy multiple teams to locate the gunmen.

In the follow-up operation, police in Kota, Rajasthan detain three suspects after receiving information from Mumbai authorities. Officers search a train that arrives at Kota and apprehend the men quickly, with reports saying officers acted within about 15 minutes. The suspects are reportedly travelling from the Mumbai area and may have been planning to evade law enforcement by going via Delhi toward Nepal. Outlets differ on details about any weapons recovery, but police say they did not find weapons at the time of detention.

Authorities continue to investigate possible links to organized criminal networks and whether there was reconnaissance of Shroff’s movements. Several sources also report political reactions, including criticism of law-and-order failures by a senior opposition leader, while senior Maharashtra officials meet or assure the actor of action.
