‘What is this?’: Vidyut Jammwal calls out fans who stood by during attack on Tiger Shroff
What people are saying

someone should have run… someone should have caught them (the shooters).
We need fewer spectators and more heroes.
I would like to tell Mumbai police: yes, you will give him security, but this should never happen again.
