Speaking about Mumbai's reputation, Mika Singh said, "Mumbai has always been known as one of the safest cities in India, where people—especially women—have felt confident walking, working, and travelling even late at night.

Actor Poonam Pandey said she was struggling to come to terms with the news. “I am still struggling to process this. We were just at a Durga pandal when this news suddenly came to my attention...Over the last few years, we have repeatedly heard such news. Someone breaks into an actor's home, as happened with Saif Ali Khan, or Salman Khan receives threats...It is frightening. It is truly terrifying,” she said.

Actor Ranvir Shorey, meanwhile, was among the first members of the film industry to publicly react to the shooting. In a post on X, he wrote, “Shocking, and disgusting! Hope everyone is safe, @iTIGERSHROFF @bindasbhidu! No mercy for the perpetrators, @MumbaiPolice! This is outrageous!”

The ones who are harmless are sent to jail - the ones who are criminals are shooting innocents on the street ! A gangster who is in Jail openly threatens Bollywood and shoots at will -and we just allow fear to spread ! Who is answerable ?? @AmitShah @Dev_Fadnavis could u please address the state / city / resident of Juhu?? Or are you still worried about harmless flag walkers!”
