A late-night shooting incident near Bollywood director Rohit Shetty’s home in Mumbai’s Juhu area prompted swift action from law enforcement, though no injuries were reported. According to officials, four rounds were discharged outside the residential building, triggering an immediate security lockdown and a forensic examination of the scene.
Mumbai Police, along with crime branch officials and forensic teams, rushed to the location and sealed off the surrounding area as a precaution. Patrols have since been increased to ensure public safety and prevent further threats. Residents nearby reported hearing multiple gunshots before authorities arrived.
Mumbai Police Commissioner Deven Bharti confirmed that an investigation is underway, stating that officers are examining the firing incident from all possible angles. Authorities have not yet identified the suspects, and the motive behind the act remains unclear.
Meanwhile, a social media message allegedly linked to individuals connected with criminal networks has surfaced, claiming responsibility for the incident. The post reportedly included threats directed at Rohit Shetty and broader warnings aimed at members of the film industry. Police are assessing the authenticity of the message and its potential connection to the case.
Investigators are also exploring whether organized crime or international gang involvement could be linked to the firing, although no confirmed conclusions have been reached. Security visuals circulating online show heavy police presence, barricades, and forensic teams stationed outside the property.
Rohit Shetty and his family have not issued any public response so far. Authorities continue to treat the case as a serious security concern, working to determine whether the act was meant as intimidation or driven by another criminal objective.
