Early Sunday morning, the residence of YouTuber and Bigg Boss winner Elvish Yadav in Gurugram's Sector 56 became the scene of a shooting incident. According to police reports, the incident occurred between 5:30 am and 6:00 am, when three masked men on a motorcycle fired multiple rounds at the house before fleeing.
Law enforcement officials have confirmed that Elvish Yadav was not present at the residence during the attack. Fortunately, no injuries have been reported as a result of the shooting. The Gurugram Police have initiated an investigation into the incident. Forensic experts have been deployed to the site to collect evidence and analyze bullet casings.
Initial reports indicate that the assailants discharged over a dozen rounds. Some sources suggest that around 20 bullets were fired. However, other reports claim the number to be over two dozen. The exact number of shots fired is still under investigation.
The incident has raised concerns about the security of Elvish Yadav, who has a significant social media presence and has been involved in controversies. While the motive behind the attack remains unknown, police have assured that they are exploring all possible angles.
This incident occurs against the backdrop of other recent events involving Elvish Yadav. In early August 2025, the Supreme Court stayed proceedings in a trial court against Yadav in connection with a snake venom case. The case involves allegations of the use of snake venom as a recreational drug at rave parties. Yadav was arrested in March of the previous year by Noida police in connection with the case.
In April 2025, the National Commission for Women (NCW) summoned Elvish Yadav for allegedly making racist remarks against Miss Arunachal and Bigg Boss contestant Chum Darang. Yadav later apologized for his remarks.
The shooting at Elvish Yadav's residence adds another layer of complexity to the series of events surrounding the YouTuber. The investigation is ongoing, and further details are awaited as the police continue to probe the incident.
