LAHORE: Unidentified gunmen resorted to aerial firing outside the residence of the film actor Meera on Friday night, after which they fled from the spot, DawnNews reported.

According to Lahore police, the incident occurred late at night outside the famous Pakistani actor's house, in the ‘U’ block of the Defence-B area.
