The café was reportedly fired upon soon after it opened, and was hit again in August. In October, a drive-by shooting reportedly broke the glass front of the premises. A few reports tied the attacks to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, but these claims were never independently confirmed. Nobody was hurt in any of the incidents.Kapil Sharma reacts to the attacksSpeaking about the attacks in November, during promotions for his film 'Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2', Kapil appeared unshaken by the setbacks.
