The decision has disrupted a sporting activity that regularly involves many Bollywood actors. The club will now have to seek police permission before resuming the sessions.
What Happened During the Tiger Shroff Firing Incident?
The reports said the incident had occurred at around 7 pm on October 18, as Tiger was returning from a football practice near Pushpa Narsee Park, in Mumbai’s Juhu area.
The three men on the motorcycle opened fire as the actor was entering his car. The gunmen then fled the scene. Tiger was not shot but his driver, Firdosh, and another man identified as Umesh Chavan sustained gunshot wounds.
The men were taken to hospitals for treatment. Police launched an investigation into the attack, which involved CCTV footage and an attempt to identify the attackers.
The event was also getting some coverage because of claims made online that a connection to a gang was being investigated. Those claims weren’t confirmed in the initial coverage, and the probe was ongoing.
Bunty Walia Confirms Suspension of Matches
ASFC founder Bunty Walia stated the football sessions of the club have been stopped until the security arrangements are in order.
Speaking to NDTV, he said the club had temporarily suspended all the sessions. He also said the club would consult the police before resuming the activities.
The club has also thought about withholding information on where matches will take place and what dates they will be played. This means that it would be harder for the gatherings to attract unwanted public attention.
The ban is only short-term and at this stage there is no definitive date for the return of the Sunday fixtures in reports published on 26 October.
Ranbir Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, Kartik Aaryan Among the Members
All Stars Football Club often hosts various celebrities and actors for a game of football. Actors like Ranbir Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, and Kartik Aaryan are also part of this club.
Many film industry people, in fact, have made football sessions their routine sporting activity in the midst of film schedules.
The break in the match means the team will have to wait until the club and police are comfortable with the safety measures they plan to put in place.

Security Measures Under Review
The event has also reopened debate over security for venues routinely visited by celebrities. Celebrity football gatherings often draw paparazzi and fans, so it’s hard to maintain secrecy if the time and place of the meetings are known well in advance.
ASFC does not have a fixed date for restart, but it is currently ensuring that appropriate safety precautions are taken before action is played.
There is the story of the Mumbai Police probing the 18 October firing as well. How the attack happened and who did it is for the investigators to determine.
Cancelled football sessions demonstrate how the scandal has affected the lives of a larger group of people from the world of Bollywood as well.
