Separately, in a recent development concerning the firing incident at actor Tiger Shroff’s residence, Mumbai Crime Branch sources indicate that the accused had reportedly conducted reconnaissance of several Bollywood celebrities’ homes, including those of Amitabh Bachchan and Salman Khan, prior to the October 18 attack. Reports suggest the perpetrators were instructed to target celebrities with less stringent security. Auto-rickshaw drivers allegedly transported the accused to various celebrity residences, including those of Bachchan, Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar, and Salman Khan.
