Although Tiger reportedly escaped without any gunshot wounds, he is said to have suffered minor injuries. Photographs taken during Shinde's visit to the actor's residence showed dressings on Tiger's shoulder and chest, along with a bandage on his right arm.

Shinde later told reporters that Tiger had sustained injuries to his left hand due to gunpowder and broken glass. He also said that the actor and his mother were shaken by the incident.

Disha Patani visits Tiger's residence after shooting

Tiger's close friend and Baaghi 2 co-star Disha Patani reportedly visited his residence late on Sunday night, hours after the firing incident. She is said to have rushed to his home after learning about the attack.

Tiger and Disha have often been linked romantically, although neither has publicly confirmed the relationship. The two have continued to be associated with each other in media reports since working together in Baaghi 2.

Shinde also visited the actor's residence on Sunday night to check on his condition and speak to the family. Ayesha was present during the meeting.

After meeting Tiger, the deputy chief minister condemned the shooting and assured the family that the government would take the necessary steps to address the threat. He said, "This is a major incident... five rounds were fired, but fortunately, he was safe. His driver sustained injuries, and the incident is condemnable. I met with the actor; he has injuries on his left hand caused by gunpowder and shards of glass. Both he and his mother are quite shaken... I have assured them that the state government stands with them in the face of the open threats being directed at public figures... No form of threat will be tolerated. Such gang wars were quite common in the 90s, but the Mumbai Police put an end to them in 1995... These attempts to intimidate people will not be tolerated, and we will put an end to this hooliganism."
