New details have emerged in the investigation into the firing incident involving Tiger Shroff. According to the Mumbai Crime Branch, the actor was not the attackers’ first choice. The shooters had reportedly planned to target another major Bollywood star but changed their plans due to the tight security surrounding the celebrity.

As reported by NDTV, Salman Khan was allegedly the original target. The attackers had reportedly conducted a recce of the actor’s residence, Galaxy Apartments, in Bandra. However, the heavy police presence and security arrangements outside his home made it difficult for them to carry out their plan.

Following the failed attempt to target Salman, the shooters were allegedly instructed to identify other Bollywood celebrities with comparatively fewer security arrangements. They subsequently turned their attention to Tiger Shroff, believing he would be a more accessible target.

Speaking to ANI, the Mumbai Crime Branch stated, “Tiger Shroff was not the shooters’ original target. The three shooters were targeting a prominent Bollywood celebrity. However, the celebrity’s security was so tight that the shooters were unable to target them.”

The agency further added, “Later, the shooters decided to target Tiger Shroff, believing he would be an easier target, and opened fire at him instead.”

Investigators also revealed that the accused had surveyed the residences of several other Bollywood stars, including Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar and Aamir Khan. To avoid raising suspicion, the shooters allegedly posed as tourists exploring Mumbai. They travelled across different parts of the city using an auto-rickshaw and a motorcycle belonging to one of the accused, identified as Hrithik.

In the wake of the firing incident, security around Salman Khan has been tightened, with special commandos deployed alongside Mumbai Police personnel to ensure the actor’s safety.
