Salman Khan’s father Salim Khan threatened in Bandra, Mumbai: ‘Lawrence Bishnoi Ko Bulau Kya?’

Salim Khan, the father of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, encountered a disturbing threat during his morning walk at the Bandra promenade. While resting on a bench during his morning walk, an unidentified man on a scooter, accompanied by a woman dressed in a burqa, approached him. The pair mentioned the notorious gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, with the man reportedly saying, "Lawrence Bishnoi ko bulau kya (Should I send Lawrence Bishnoi?)" according to news reorts.

Given the past threats Salman Khan has faced, the mention of Bishnoi immediately raised alarms. The Bandra Police were promptly informed, and an investigation was launched.

The individuals involved had no criminal records, and they were detained by the police for questioning.

Following that incident, Salman Khan was granted Y-plus security by the Mumbai Police, which includes armed escorts, due to the increased threat level. In addition to police protection, Salman continues to rely on his trusted bodyguard Shera for personal security

Salman Khan had previously recorded a statement with the Mumbai Crime Branch regarding the April attack, detailing that he was awakened by the sound of gunshots hitting his balcony. His brother, Arbaaz Khan, also acknowledged being aware of the ongoing threats from the Bishnoi gang.
