Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff is expected to return to the sets of Lag Jaa Gale in November after the Diwali celebrations, following a firing incident in Mumbai that left him with minor injuries. The October 18, 2026, incident near a football ground in Juhu also injured his driver and another person. The Lawrence Bishnoi gang later claimed responsibility for the firing.
Following the incident, the film’s production team has reportedly strengthened security arrangements to ensure the actor’s safety as filming resumes.
Tiger Shroff’s Return to Lag Jaa Gale Sets After Diwali
According to reports, Tiger Shroff is likely to resume filming in early November, once the main Diwali celebrations are over. The primary day of Diwali celebrations, Lakshmi Puja, falls on Sunday, November 8, 2026, with the festival being observed from November 6 to November 10.
Earlier reports had suggested that the actor might return to work sooner. However, Tiger has been recovering at home with his family since the October 18 incident.
His upcoming shooting schedule for Lag Jaa Gale is expected to last around 10 days. The brief schedule will focus on filming the remaining portions featuring the actor.
Security Measures Increased Following Firing Incident
The incident has reportedly prompted the makers of Lag Jaa Gale to revise their security arrangements for Tiger Shroff. The actor’s security team and the production unit have put additional precautions in place ahead of his return to the sets.
As part of the reported measures, details about shooting schedules and locations are being kept confidential and shared only with a limited group of trusted team members. Additional security precautions are also being introduced at filming locations.
Meanwhile, the police investigation into the October 18 firing remains underway. Seven people have reportedly been arrested so far, including the alleged shooters and their accomplice.
The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) has also called on film producers to strengthen security measures across the industry. Its recommendations include verifying the backgrounds of people hired for film productions and promptly reporting potential threats.
