Following a recent assault on co‑actor Tiger Shroff, Bollywood star Akshay Kumar has ordered bullet‑proof glass to be fitted at his Mumbai residence as a security measure.
Mumbai – After a reported physical attack on fellow actor Tiger Shroff, veteran Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar has decided to enhance the security of his Mumbai house by installing bullet‑proof glass on its windows and doors. The move, disclosed by the daily Mid‑Day, reflects growing concerns among film personalities about personal safety following high‑profile incidents.
Sources close to Kumar say the upgrade will be carried out by a specialized security firm, with installation slated to begin within the next few weeks. The bullet‑proof glazing is expected to meet Indian standards for ballistic resistance, providing protection against firearms while maintaining the aesthetic of the residence.
The decision comes amid heightened media attention on the safety of celebrities after the Tiger Shroff incident, which reportedly involved an altercation in a public setting. While details of the attack remain limited, industry insiders note that such events have prompted several stars to reassess their home security protocols.
No official comment has been released by Akshay Kumar or his representatives, and the exact specifications of the glass have not been disclosed. The installation is being treated as a precautionary measure rather than a response to a direct threat to Kumar himself.
Mid‑Day confirmed the story, citing reliable contacts within the actor's security circle, and indicated that the bullet‑proof installation will be completed before the end of the month.
