🚨 All Indian Cine Workers Association (AICWA) President Suresh Shyamlal Gupta writes to Union Home Minister Shri Amit Shah over the firing on Tiger Shroff 🚨 It was a terrifying scene in broad daylight. As Tiger Shroff was fired upon, it looked like a film shoot in progress, but it was real. Bullets were being fired as if it were Diwali firecrackers. It was a horrifying incident for Bollywood, and anyone who watches the video will be shaken. Mumbai's streets have once again been stained with blood. Tiger Shroff and his family are living in fear. In a strongly worded letter, AICWA has sought urgent central intervention after Tiger Shroff was fired upon in Juhu while sitting in his car. Two persons were hit by bullets. Tiger Shroff narrowly escaped. He has no known controversy or enmity, yet he and his family are now living in fear. This follows attacks on Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Rohit Shetty and Kapil Sharma. Today it is Tiger Shroff. Who is next? AICWA demands: ▪️ Full security for Tiger Shroff and his family ▪️ NIA and central agencies to probe the gang networks, in coordination with Maharashtra Police ▪️ Arrest of the shooters and those who ordered the firing ▪️ Fast-track trial under strict laws ▪️ A dedicated task force for the safety of the film industry ▪️ Accountability for the repeated failures ▪️ Permanent end to the fear of gangsters in Bollywood ▪️ A time-bound report on the action taken The film industry gives livelihood to lakhs of people. If the fear of the underworld continues, leading names may be forced to leave Mumbai. Mumbai will not be allowed to go back to the underworld days of the 1990s, and Bollywood will not be allowed to work in the shadow of fear. AICWA stands with Tiger Shroff and his family with full strength. 💪 | #TigerShroff | #Bollywood |#AICWA |#AllIndianCineWorkersAssociation |#AmitShah | #Mumbai | #SaveBollywood | #LawAndOrder |#Firing | | @AmitShah | @HMOIndia | @Dev_Fadnavis | @CMOMaharashtra | @iYogeshRKadam | @ANI | @PTI_News | @ians_india | @sureshsgupta | @NIA_India |

Earlier on Sunday after the incident, they have shared a list of demands on their X handle.
It read, "1) Take the strictest possible action against the gangsters behind these attacks, in the only language they understand.
2) Arrest the shooters and also those who ordered the firing, without delay, and break the extortion network.
3) Provide adequate security and protection to film personalities and their families.
4) Fix accountability for the repeated failure to prevent these attacks.
5) Restore the confidence of Mumbai's citizens and the film fraternity in law and order."
The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) condemned the incident and demanded safety and security for the actor and his family.
"Such acts of violence and intimidation are completely unacceptable and raise serious concerns about the safety and security of personalities associated with the Indian film industry. It is deeply disturbing that this is the second such incident involving a prominent personality from the film industry, following the earlier firing incident involving renowned filmmaker Mr. Rohit Shetty. The recurrence of such incidents is a matter of grave concern and calls for immediate, decisive and effective action by the concerned authorities," read a statement issued by FWICE.
According to Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Mohit Garg, Tiger Shroff narrowly escaped injury after he was shot at from the close quarters as he was leaving the football club in his car at around 7 pm on Sunday.
After news emerged that the actor was targeted in a shooting, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde visited his residence on Sunday night to enquire about his well-being and to assure him of the state government's support.
