Disha Patani, known for films like 'M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story', 'Malang', and 'Baaghi 2', faced a frightening incident when gunshots were fired at her family home in Bareilly. Her father, Jagdish Patani, a retired police officer, has now confirmed that foreign-made weapons were used and described the terrifying attack on their residence.

Shots fired at Disha Patani’s residence

Jagdish Patani told ANI, "Two unidentified assailants fired at my residence. Police are making all possible efforts...Bareilly Police, SSP, and ADG are all working on it.


He further added, “The gunshots are not indigenous; they are foreign-made. I think 8-10 rounds were fired. I came to know through social media that Goldy Brar has taken its responsibility, but it is not clear yet."

Two motorbike assailants targeted the home

As reported by ANI, according to police, two people on a motorcycle fired at the Patani home around 3:30 am. SSP Bareilly, Anurag Arya, said, "We received information about the firing at retired CO Jagdish Patani's residence by two unidentified motorbike-borne assailants. Police teams were immediately sent to the site. An FIR has been registered at the Kotwali police station under various sections. Armed police personnel have been deployed for the protection of the family members."

He added, "We will take strict action against the involved accused. I personally met with the family and have assured them of their safety."

Goldy Brar group claimed responsibility publicly

As per the reports, the Goldy Brar group has claimed responsibility for the attack. A gang member, Veerendra Charan, wrote on Facebook, "I am Veerendra Charan, Mahendra Saran (Delana). Brothers, today, the firing that took place at the house of Disha Patani (Bollywood actress) has been done by us. She had insulted our revered saints (Premanand Ji Maharaj and Aniruddh Acharya Ji Maharaj) and tried to belittle our Sanatan Dharma."

He added, "The insult to our deities will not be tolerated. This was just a trailer. If she or anyone else shows disrespect towards our religion again, not a single person in their house will be left alive. This message is not just for her, but for all the film industry artists and those associated with them."

Police teams investigate the shooting further

Police have formed five teams under SP City and SP Crime to investigate the shooting further. They are also keeping a close watch on the Patani family and have increased security measures at their residence. More details about the case and the accused are awaited as the authorities are monitoring the situation.
