Amitabh Bachchan And Diljit Dosanjh Receive Bomb Threats

The Mumbai Mayor's office reportedly received another bomb threat email, with the sender claiming that Amitabh Bachchan's Jalsa bungalow would be targeted using a car bomb. The message also allegedly threatened singer Diljit Dosanjh's upcoming Mumbai concert, claiming that an iPhone bomb would be used.

Following the email, local police personnel and bomb squad officials reached the location to carry out necessary checks. The sender's identity and the credibility of the threats are being investigated. The latest incident comes amid a series of security concerns involving Bollywood personalities. Responding to the situation, Maharashtra Minister Ashish Shelar assured members of the film industry that the state government is taking the matter seriously.

Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, Shelar said Mumbai Police was working to trace the origins of the threatening calls and emails, including those allegedly generated using artificial intelligence. He said the authorities were examining which threats were genuine and which were merely intended to create panic.

"The Mumbai Police is capable, and the police systems have worked on it. We need to figure out where these AI-generated calls are coming from, whether it is just empty talk, and where the real issues are, and then we need to catch the culprits. Bollywood is completely safe right now; the Maharashtra government assures. The government also expects this from the Mumbai Police, and they are actually doing their work," Shelar said.

Appealing to people not to give in to fear, he added, "Yahan darna mana hai, this is all I can say."

Tiger Shroff Firing Incident And Other Attacks

Shelar's remarks come weeks after a firing incident involving actor Tiger Shroff in Mumbai's Juhu area. On October 18, 2026, the actor was reportedly returning home after playing football when three men allegedly opened fire at his car at around 7 pm. Tiger escaped serious injuries, but his driver and a fan standing nearby were reportedly shot. Both have since recovered.

The Lawrence Bishnoi gang allegedly claimed responsibility for the attack. Gangsters Anil Pandit and Harman Sandhu reportedly said that Tiger had previously been warned over the phone. They also issued a threat against those working with Salman Khan. According to the information shared about the investigation, Mumbai Police formed 20 special teams and arrested 13 people in connection with the case. Five accused reportedly had their police custody extended, while seven were sent to judicial custody.

During Thursday's press conference, Shelar reiterated that the Maharashtra government expects Mumbai Police to identify those behind the threats and take appropriate action. He maintained that the force is equipped to handle the situation and urged Bollywood personalities not to live in fear.
