Meanwhile, on September 19, Salman Khan's father and veteran writer Salim Khan received a fresh threat during his morning walk in Bandra. As per reports, a woman threatened Salim Khan using gangster Lawrence Bishnoi's name.
According to India Today, a man and a burqa-clad woman approached Salim Khan on a scooter and tried to intimidate him using Lawrence Bishnoi's name. The woman allegedly told Khan, "Should I send Lawrence Bishnoi?" while he was sitting on a bench. The threat came hours after Salman Khan flew out of Mumbai with his high security.
In April this year, two men on a bike fired multiple rounds outside Salman's house early in the morning outside his Galaxy Apartment. The responsibility was claimed by Lawrence Bishnoi's brother Anmol Bishnoi through a Facebook post.
In a statement, Salman told Mumbai Police, "I heard a cracker-like sound. Then, at around 4.55 am, the police bodyguard said that two people on a bike had fired from a weapon at the Galaxy Apartment’s first-floor balcony. There had been attempts to hurt me and my family prior to this as well. I have learnt that Lawrence Bishnoi has taken responsibility for the attack from social media. So, I believe that it is the Lawrence Bishnoi gang who have carried out the firing on my balcony."
Meanwhile, on the professional front, Salman Khan is busy shooting Sikandar with Rashmika Mandanna. Directed by A.R. Murugadoss, the film will hit theaters on Eid 2025.
