The update from Jackie's team comes amid an ongoing investigation into the firing. Mumbai Police have reportedly formed 12 specialised teams to trace those responsible, with investigators examining CCTV footage from the area to establish the sequence of events.

Maharashtra Cultural Affairs Minister Ashish Shelar also spoke to the Shroff family following the incident.

Meanwhile, two overseas-based gangsters, Anil Pandit and Harman Sandhu, allegedly claimed responsibility for the firing in a Facebook post issued in the name of the Lawrence Bishnoi group. The claim has not been independently verified.

In the post, the individuals claimed that Tiger was targeted for allegedly ignoring earlier warnings against working with actor Salman Khan. They reportedly warned, “Anyone who does not listen to us, they will be next, wait and watch,”. However, the authenticity of the claim remains unverified, and the investigation is ongoing.

Tiger is the son of Jackie Shroff and former model and film producer Ayesha Shroff. He made his acting debut opposite Kriti Sanon in Heropanti (2014). His last theatrical release was Baaghi 4, which also featured Sanjay Dutt, Sonam Bajwa and Harnaaz Sandhu.

Further details about the firing incident are awaited.
