Rumours of a firing incident outside Bollywood comedian Kapil Sharma's residence in Amritsar were circulated on social media but were officially denied by the Amritsar Commissionerate Police after thorough verification.

These rumours followed multiple shooting attacks on Kapil Sharma's Canada-based café in Surrey, British Columbia, where pro-Khalistan groups allegedly claimed responsibility for the incidents in 2025.
