The incident dates back to September 12, when two motorcycle-borne assailants opened fire outside Disha Patani’s ancestral home in Bareilly’s Civil Lines area at around 3:45 a.m. The attack was later claimed by Indian gangsters Goldy Brar and Rohit Godara, who issued threats against Patani’s sister Khushboo, accusing her of using derogatory remarks against their so-called “spiritual leaders.”
Following the attack, heavy security was deployed around Patani’s residence, and a large-scale manhunt was launched. Police have vowed to bring all those involved to justice, while the actress’s family continues to remain under tight security.
