Tiger Shroff narrowly survived an assassination attempt on October 18.
Two shooters fired several rounds at his car in Juhu, with his driver sustaining injuries.
A new statement released by his fan club has called out the misinformation and false content spreading in the wake of the attack.
An official statement issued by Tiger Shroff’s fan club has debunked circulating claims surrounding the recent shooting incident. Clarifying that the actor has released no comments or video responses, the statement cautioned fans against widespread misinformation and fabricated AI-generated content falsely attributed to him. Tiger's father, Jackie Shroff, has also re-shared it on Instagram.
While Tiger was heading home after a football match on October 18, two gunmen ambushed the actor outside the stadium, unloading seven shots into his vehicle. Five bullets struck the car, leaving both his driver and a passenger wounded. As panic gripped the scene and the bleeding driver collapsed out of the car, the assailants escaped on a motorcycle waiting nearby with a third accomplice. Taking quick control of the wheel, Tiger drove the injured driver directly to Nanavati Hospital.
The statement underlined, "We would like to categorically clarify that Tiger Shroff has made no statements, released no videos, and authorised no communication regarding the recent incident or any related developments."
