A day after shots were fired outside AP Dhillon's house on Victoria Island in Canada's Vancouver, the Punjabi singer said that "he is safe". A man named Rohit Godara, a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, has reportedly taken responsibility for the incident. "I'm safe, My people are safe. Thank you to everyone who reached out to me. Your support means everything," Dhillon wrote on Instagram.
A purported post is being circulated where the Godara is claiming that the firing took place at two locations in Canada - Victoria Island and Woodbridge Toronto.

The incident has drawn significant media attention due to Dhillon’s prominent status in the music industry, and the potential implications of the attack.
