The Tiger Shroff shooting incident has prompted several celebrities to come out in support of the actor.

In the video, Vidyut shared, "Tiger Shroff, you are the bravest person, but I want to tell your fans that everyone who goes to watch him play football and says, ‘I am your biggest fan,' should have done something. Out of so many people, someone should have caught the attackers, or someone should have run after them."

He further said, "Mumbai Police, yes, you will provide him with security, but this should never happen again. If such a mistake happens again, you will be the ones held responsible."

"And Tiger, Bajrang Baan is your favourite, right? Whenever I feel very lonely, I listen to it, and I know you listen to it too. I love you, brother!" Vidyut concluded.

He wrote in the caption, "We know there's a lot happening in our country. Sometimes we can raise our voice, sometimes we can't, but WE do in our own way. But when we see someone being harassed or assaulted on the street (woman : man), why do we stand by and watch? Why can't one of us step forward, not just as witnesses, but as human beings? We need fewer spectators and more heroes."
