Tiger Shroff’s team shares burn video as 3 shooters held

Days after a targeted firing outside a football ground, Tiger Shroff’s team has posted a close-up video of small red gunpowder burn marks on the actor’s arm. The Instagram caption was short: “God is Kind.”

The video arrives after a wave of doubt

The clip follows a strange social media moment. Photos of Tiger with heavily bandaged injuries went viral soon after the October 18 attack. Then other images seemed to show unmarked skin, and sections of the internet began asking whether the injury was real at all.

By sharing the visible marks, the team is choosing to answer the doubt with primary evidence rather than another written clarification alone.

Fake clips and a legal warning

Earlier, the actor’s team issued a statement about fabricated stories, AI-generated videos and scripted narratives. It clarified that Tiger had made no statements, released no videos and authorised no communication about the incident. The team called the material “completely false, unauthorised and intended to mislead the public.”

It also said legal action could follow for anyone creating or sharing misleading content, and urged people to trust only verified updates from official channels.

Misinformation around star security is not new, but AI tools have made it easier to produce convincing clips. That raises the stakes for teams, who now have to manage both the police case and the content feed.

What happened on October 18

• Three men on two motorcycles opened fire at Tiger Shroff’s car.
• The actor escaped unhurt; his driver and a fan were injured.
• Kota Police arrested three shooters — two from Haryana and one from Bihar — and handed them over to Mumbai Police.
• The Lawrence Bishnoi gang has claimed responsibility and issued fresh threats linked to people working with Salman Khan.

For Hindi film fans, the incident has turned from a security scare into a misinformation case study. A real threat, a high-profile target and fast-moving social platforms can produce contradictory images within hours. For an actor whose image is built on fitness and action, even a hand injury becomes public property, and the scrutiny can overtake the actual security issue.

Security review and a US-linked suspect

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde met the actor at his residence and assured a thorough review of security protocols for high-profile film personalities.

Police attention is also on Anil Pandit, who is said to operate from the United States. Investigators are looking into his alleged links to more than a dozen extortion cases and targeted attacks in Delhi and Haryana.

What fans can do

The cleanest way to avoid the noise is to check the actor’s official handle before sharing photos or clips. If a video claims to show a star speaking about an incident, look for the same update on a verified account. And if a graphic seems too dramatic to be true, pause before hitting forward.
