Bachchan, who said the incident took place just 20 feet&nbsp;from where he was shooting, tweeted that a person was killed&nbsp;in the "gangwar shootout". According to police, the assailants struck around 2 PM at&nbsp;one of Mumbai's most favoured shooting locations.

Meanwhile the assailants left behind one of the bikes and made their escape good on the other. Investigations into the matter are currently underway.
The two assailants, who are yet to be identified, opened fire at Shinde, who owns the security agency. Shinde is also an office bearer of Shiv Sena's film wing, Chitrapat Sena.
He received two bullets injuries in his abdomen and one on the right hand, said additional commissioner of police Fateh Singh Patil.
"After the firing, the assailants were chased by another&nbsp;security guard and both attackers ran away leaving their&nbsp;motorcycle in the jungle of Arey," he said.&nbsp;
"We have seized the motorcycle. We are finding out the&nbsp;details," Patil added.
Meanwhile, Bachchan tweeted, "Okay! Shooting at Film&nbsp;City... and a gang war shootout 20 feet from where we are... 1 dead.. cops all over."&nbsp;
