Kapil Sharma cafe firing incidents
The first firing incident at Kapil Sharma's cafe took place on July 10, just a week after the cafe's grand opening. Within a month on August 7, a second firing was reported at the same location. Moreover, recently in October his cafe was again targeted. On both occasions, the glass windows of the cafe were broken, although no one was hurt either time. However, the cafe remained closed for several days after the incident and was opened again. Following the earlier shootings, Kapil Sharma had reacted publicly, saying that it was a difficult time for him but he would face the situation with courage. Canadian authorities had also assured strict action and had deployed officers to the scene.
The post on social media threatens that Goldie Dhillon and Lawrence Bishnoi gang take responsibility for the firing that took place at Kapil Sharma's Kaps Cafe in Surrey. “We called him but he did not hear the ring so action had to be taken there now if he does not hear, then the next action will be taken in Mumbai, the threat reads.
Actor received death threats
After the first two firing incidents, Kapil Sharma reportedly received death threats. In the wake of this, Mumbai Police tightened his security arrangements and also provided protection to his family members. Notably, Sharma opened Kap's Cafe on July 4, 2025, in Surrey.
