Salman Khan Faces Serious Threat from Lawrence Bishnoi Gang: ‘Apologize or Pay Rs 5 Crore’; Shocking Report
Yet again, popular Bollywood star Salman Khan is in a grim situation. It’s reported that the star has gotten a new death threat from the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang. According to the latest development in the matter, it is claimed that he is being asked to either be convicted for defamation by apologising at a specific temple of the Bishnoi community or pay up Rs 5 crore as a condition for his safety.
Details of the Threat
As is known to all, reportedly on 4 November 2024, a threatening message was received by Mumbai Police Traffic Control Room through WhatsApp where the latter was stated to have been sent from Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother who issued a grim threat warning to Salman Khan. This is Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother speaking. If Salman Khan wants to stay alive, he should either apologize at our temple or pay Rs 5 crore. If he does not comply, we will kill him. Our gang is still active.
The Mumbai Police have taken this threat seriously and have begun a full-scale investigation to trace the origin of the message and identify the person behind it. ANI also confirmed on X (formerly Twitter) that the police are filing a case at the Worli Police Station. It quoted, “In the case of a threat to actor Salman Khan, the process of registering the case is underway at Worli Police Station. The number from which the message came is being traced: Mumbai Police.”
More vigilance and security deployment
Salman Khan has been threatened of death by the Lawrence Bishnoi gang numerous times before. It was the time when he has enhanced security due to this threat. His safety had been an issue ever since the shooting of the high-profile politician and close friend Baba Siddique. His death had already raised security around Salman because there have been occasional threats coming from different factions related to Bishnoi.
This warning will most likely see an improvement in Salman Khan’s security. The police will probably increase security around the actor who is currently filming for his next movie Sikandar. According to reports, Salman and his crew had already been on high alert, as they had received advance warnings.
Projects Salman Is Working On
Despite these constant threats, Salman Khan has continued to be consistent with his professional duties. He is still shooting for Sikandar, which is an action movie offered by Sajid Nadiadwala and AR Murugadoss as the director. The cast includes Rashmika Mandanna, Sathyaraj, Prateik Babbar, Kajal Aggarwal, and Sharman Joshi. It is scheduled to be released on Eid 2025, and it is hoped that the movie will be completed by the end of 2024.
An insider said that the actor has been cautious but insistent not to let concerns over security throw a wrench into shoot schedules. An India Today report earlier spoke of how Salman was handling the affair: “His whole team is being careful about the security arrangements, and Salman himself has been making sure that no one suffers a delay because of him.
Several cases of threat and violent incidents have been identified with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Since there is cultural and religious influence in the Bishnoi community, the Bishnoi community always had an issue with Salman Khan in the form of a case related to a blackbuck poaching incident in the past. Lawrence Bishnoi, who is known closely associated with this issue, has made harsh statements against the actor that have called for repeated warnings and threats.
The latest message only amplifies the tensions that exist between Salman Khan and the Bishnoi gang. The authorities in Mumbai are so concerned about this issue and working very hard to make sure the actor is kept safe so that justice is delivered. More light can be expected to come about the investigation of the origin of the threatening message during the coming days.

As the actor always shows a lot of resistance and is dedicated to what he is doing, Salman Khan still keeps on doing his best and is managing to complete his commitment while taking utmost care of his security.
