While fans expressed relief that Tiger was safe, many also praised his quick decision to take his injured driver to hospital immediately

A video is making rounds on the internet which reportedly shows the Baaghi actor moving into the driver's seat after his driver, Firdous, was injured in the attack. Tiger then drove him to Nanavati Hospital in Mumbai for medical attention. The footage has since drawn attention online, with several users calling the actor a “real-life hero” for his presence of mind during the emergency.

Tiger Shroff rushes injured driver to hospital after firing

According to media reports, three men riding a motorcycle opened fire at Tiger's car as he was returning home after playing football in Juhu. One of the bullets reportedly passed through the vehicle's window and injured Firdous. Tiger is also said to have suffered minor abrasions caused by gunpowder and broken glass, but he did not sustain any gunshot wounds.




Instead of waiting for further assistance, Tiger reportedly took control of the vehicle and drove his injured driver to Nanavati Hospital. The decision has become a major talking point on social media, with users highlighting the actor's response to a potentially dangerous situation.

According to a report citing a senior doctor, initial scans revealed a foreign body lodged in Firdous's left hand following the bullet injury. Tiger, meanwhile, reportedly escaped with minor abrasions.

The firing took place around 300 metres from Juhu Police Station, according to The Times of India. The attackers reportedly fled towards SV Road and Vile Parle railway station after the incident. The precise circumstances of the shooting remain under investigation.

Netizens call the actor a ‘real-life hero’

As the video spread online, social media users praised Tiger for prioritising his driver's safety. Several users wrote, "This is what the real courage and bravery look like"





Politician and public figure Anish Gawande also praised the actor, describing him as a real-life hero. "After his driver was shot instead of him, he chose not to run away from the scene. Instead, he jumped into the driver's seat and drove Firdaus to the hospital instead."

The incident has led to conversations about the actor's presence of mind during an unexpected emergency. "He showed quick response in such critical situation."


"Amazing presence of mind by tiger shroff , after shooting incident he Did not get out of the car , shifted the driver seat inside only," another wrote.



While the investigation into the shooting continues, the footage of Tiger reportedly taking his driver to hospital has become a key focus of online discussion.

Mumbai Police investigate the firing incident

Mumbai Police are investigating the attack and have reportedly recorded Firdous's statement. Media reports have suggested that multiple rounds were fired at the vehicle, though investigators are examining the sequence of events and the circumstances surrounding the shooting.

The incident has also brought attention to previous threats and attacks involving celebrities, including Salman Khan, Rohit Shetty, Kapil Sharma, AP Dhillon, Guru Randhawa and Gippy Grewal. Some of these cases have been linked in media reports to threats allegedly associated with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.

However, the circumstances vary across incidents, and no connection between those cases and the firing at Tiger's car should be assumed without confirmation from investigators.
