Actor Amol Parashar has reacted to the firing incident involving Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff in Mumbai, calling the situation “very scary” and stressing the need for strict action against those responsible.
The incident reportedly took place near Juhu’s Pushpa Narsee Park on Sunday evening, with motorcycle-borne assailants opening fire in the area. Tiger Shroff was reportedly unharmed in the incident, while his driver Firdaus sustained a bullet injury to his hand. A bystander was also injured and suffered a chest wound. Both were subsequently hospitalised.
Reacting to the incident, Amol told ANI, “It's a very scary situation... whoever broke the law and did wrong to be caught and punished. The way to reduce crime is to catch the criminals and punish them. If they aren't punished, it will encourage others to do wrong too.”

Maharashtra government assures strict action
The firing has prompted a strong response from the Maharashtra government, with Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis describing the incident as serious and condemnable.
Fadnavis said that Mumbai Police had obtained certain clues during their investigation and that specific individuals had already been identified. He added that the accused would be arrested soon, while authorities would also pursue those allegedly orchestrating such attacks from behind the scenes.
According to the Chief Minister, some of those involved are operating from outside Maharashtra, with some allegedly based outside India. He said the state government would coordinate with other states and seek assistance from the Central Government in cases involving suspects operating from abroad.
Investigation underway
The incident has caused concern in Mumbai, particularly because the firing reportedly took place in a busy area close to a police station. Authorities have launched an investigation to identify and apprehend those involved.
