Security around comedian Kapil Sharma has been tightened in Mumbai after a recent attack on a Canada-based café linked to him. Get the latest updates.

Kapil Sharma’s Security Tightened in Mumbai After Canada Café Attacks

Rising Threat and Swift Response

Comedian and actor Kapil Sharma has come under serious protection in Mumbai following two alarming shooting incidents at his newly opened café in Canada. The café—Kap’s Café in Surrey, British Columbia—has been targeted twice in under a month: first on July 9/10, and again on August 7/8.

On July 10, the café was struck with approximately ten gunshots, leaving shattered glass and bullet marks but no injuries. Less than a month later, in the early hours of August 7, multiple shots were fired again, inflicting damage to windows and walls—yet thankfully, no one was harmed.

In response to these threats, the Mumbai Police immediately increased Kapil Sharma’s protection and reinforced security measures at his residence in Mumbai—including the safety of his family—though specifics of the security arrangements remain undisclosed.

Alleged Gang Involvement and Escalation of Threats

The attacks appear to stem from organized criminal threats, with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang being cited prominently in media reports. A gang member named Goldy Dhillon claimed responsibility for the August attack via a social media post, indicating the target was Kapil not answering a call and warning of actions taking place in Mumbai if ignored again. Earlier, the July attack was claimed by Harjeet Singh Laddi, associated with the Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) group and listed among the NIA’s most-wanted.

The threats extend beyond Kapil Sharma himself, with an audio clip featuring Harry Boxer—a Bishnoi gang affiliate—warning that anyone working with Salman Khan would no longer receive warnings and would face direct consequences. The clip implied potential threats to Bollywood industry figures, saying, “Next time, the bullet will be straight to the chest”.

Canadian Fallout and Global Reverberations

These violent episodes have elicited strong concern not just in India but also in Canada. Beijing-based attacks targeting a high-profile Indian public figure have prompted calls from Canada’s Conservative Party to designate the Lawrence Bishnoi gang as a terrorist organization and freeze their assets.

Concurrently, Surrey and Delta Police are investigating both shooting incidents, coordinating with Kapil Sharma’s team and Canadian authorities to determine underlying motives and potential patterns.

Mumbai’s Preventive Posture Strengthened

With threats potentially moving from Canada to Mumbai, Indian law enforcement has taken preemptive steps. The Mumbai Police has not only beefed up security at Kapil’s residence in the Oshiwara suburb but also taken measures after verifying the address of his home and ensuring all safety protocols are in place.

Conclusion

As investigations continue in both Canada and India, the heightened visibility of this case underscores the growing stakes for public figures in the face of organized criminal threats. Kapil Sharma’s situation serves as a reminder of the risks celebrities may face—and the swift response required by authorities to ensure their safety and maintain public order.
