Days after Tiger Shroff firing case, Rohit Shetty breaks silence on attacks on Bollywood celebs

Filmmaker Rohit Shetty has publicly spoken out about the firing incident outside his home for the first time, during his appearance on Bigg Boss 20 on Saturday’s Weekend Ka Vaar episode.

Addressing the security threat for the first time, Shetty also referred to the recent firing incident on Tiger Shroff.

Shetty filled in for host Salman Khan on Saturday’s Weekend Ka Vaar and channelled his no-nonsense authority to pull up contestants Scout OP, Aasif Khan and Yung DSA for repeatedly ganging up on Qazi Touqeer.

Drawing a parallel to the real-life security threats and firing incidents targeting Bollywood personalities, Rohit called out the contestants for trying to act like gangsters inside the house.

“Yahan humare ghar par goliyan chal rahi hain, tum kya gangster banke ghoom rahe ho?” Rohit admonished the contestants.

In the early hours of February 1, at least five rounds were fired at the first floor of Rohit Shetty’s Mumbai residence, though fortunately, no injuries were reported. Mumbai Police subsequently arrested multiple suspects.

This security breach mirrors a similar high-profile attack last year, when assailants opened fire at Salman’s Bandra apartment.

Adding to the string of attacks on Bollywood stars, Tiger Shroff was recently targeted in a Juhu firing incident on October 18. According to Mumbai Police, assailants opened fire at the actor’s car around 7 pm as he was leaving a football club. While Tiger escaped unhurt, two people, including his driver, sustained injuries.
