Salman Khan breaks silence on death threats from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
Salman Khan has been facing death threats from gangster Lawrence Bishnoi for the last two years. The actor’s security has been beefed up, especially after the death of his close friend and politician, Baba Siddique. At a press event promoting the film on Wednesday, the actor broke silence over death threats he has been receiving. He said, “Bhagwan, Allah sab unpar hai. Jitni umar likhi hai, utni likhi hai. Bas yahi hai. Kabhi kabhi itne logo ko sath mein leke chalna padtahai, bas wahi dikkat aa jati hai (God, Allah, everything depends on Him. It’s predetermined how long I’ll live. That’s it. Sometimes, I have to take so many people along that causes a problem).”
Death threats to Salman Khan by Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
While Lawrence Bishnoi is in Ahmedabad’s Sabarmati jail for attempting murder and extortion, his gang members allegedly opened fire outside Salman’s Bandra home in April last year. Navi Mumbai police claimed to have uncovered a plot by Bishnoi gang to kill Salman Khan while on his way to his Panvel farmhouse.
On the work front, Salman Khan is gearing up for the release of Sikandar, co-starring Rashmika Mandanna and directed by AR Murugadoss. The film will be released in theatres on Sunday, March 30, 2025.
