Over two dozen bullets were fired outside YouTuber Elvish Yadav’s residence in Gurugram’s Sector 57. Two masked men on a bike opened fire around 5:30 am. Elvish was not home, but his family was inside. No injuries were reported.

CCTV footage shows one attacker leaning over the gate and firing multiple rounds before fleeing. Soon after, a gang calling itself the Bhau Gang claimed responsibility online. Gangsters Neeraj Faridpuria and Himanshu Bhau (alias Bhau Ritoliya) posted threats targeting Elvish and other influencers allegedly promoting betting apps.

Elvish’s father confirmed hearing gunshots and said the family was terrified. He also mentioned no prior threats had been received.

Gurugram Police have begun investigations, collected forensic evidence, and are reviewing CCTV footage. An FIR is expected. The gang’s online claims are being verified.

Elvish Yadav, currently outside Haryana, has faced legal trouble before — including cases linked to a Noida rave party, use of snakes in music videos, and a scuffle with another YouTuber. He was also questioned by the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering probe.

The gangsters behind the attack reportedly have international connections. Neeraj, with over 25 criminal cases, is believed to be operating from North America. Himanshu Bhau is based in Portugal and is suspected in another recent shooting. Police are now probing deeper into the motive and overseas links.
