The official social media account of Tiger Shroff's team issued an official statement after the firing incident on the actor on October 18, 2026, that left two injured. The team shared that Tiger had not spoken or shared any statement about the firing incident yet, and any official information would come directly from them. They also urged the public to stop sharing any fake news and AI-generated content relating to Tiger. His team warned that legal action could be initiated towards those who were promoting or circulating any fabricated content.
On Instagram, Tiger Shroff's team stated that they would like to categorically clarify that Tiger has made no statements or released any videos after the firing incident on Sunday, October 18. Furthermore, he had authorised no communication on the same.
The team shared that many social media pages and other platforms had been circulating fabricated stories, AI-generated videos and scripted narratives regarding the incident and falsely attributing them to Tiger. The statement said, "These are completely false, unauthorised and intended to mislead the public."
The team went on to warn, "Any individual or page found creating, promoting or circulating such fabricated content will face appropriate legal action. We are taking cognisance of these instances and reserve the right to pursue all available legal remedies against those responsible."
Tiger's father, veteran actor Jackie Shroff, also reacted to the statement by dropping a red heart emoji in the comments section. On the day of the shooting, Jackie had shared that Tiger was "okay" after the incident. Tiger's driver Firdaus and another man, Mr Chauhan, were injured when three assailants fired three rounds at close range on the actor's BMW when he was leaving a football ground in Mumbai's Juhu area.
A day after the attack, the three accused were taken into custody in Kota, Rajasthan, and handed over to the Mumbai police in Kota. Two of the accused are from Haryana, and the third is from Bihar. The Lawrence Bishnoi gang has claimed responsibility for the incident. An investigation is underway with the Mumbai Police, and the Bollywood star has been provided with police security.
In a press conference, DCP Raj Tilak Roshan stated, "We don't have anything on record that Tiger Shroff has received prior threat calls about this incident. We have started an investigation, and in due course we will come to know about the larger conspiracy in this case."
