Salman Khan is going through a tough phase in life as new death threats are issued regularly to the actor in one way or the other. Some are fake, while the others are allegedly from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. A few days ago, one such threat involved a demand of Rs. 5 crore from the actor, and today, on November 12, 2024, the police arrested a 24-year-old aspiring songwriter for allegedly issuing those threats to Salman Khan under the gangster's name.
On Tuesday, the Crime branch arrested the aspiring songwriter named Sohail Pasha, from Raichur in Karnataka, for sending threatening messages. He allegedly sent those threats to popularize the songs written by him and used the threats as a medium for it, police claimed.
For those unaware, the Mumbai traffic police received threat messages on November 7. The sender claimed to be a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and threatened to kill the actor and the writer of a song from his upcoming movie if the superstar wouldn't give him Rs. 5 crore.
According to NDTV, a special warning was made for the songwriter that read: "The songwriter's condition will be such that he will no longer be able to write songs. If Salman Khan has the courage, he should save them." Now, The Indian Express reported that the arrested young man, Pasha, is the lyricist of a song in Salman's upcoming film and did this for publicity.
Despite these hurdles, Khan has continued shooting for his upcoming film, Sikandar, in Hyderabad. As per a report in Mid-Day, a four-level security cover has been placed for the actor, and strict security measures have been taken at his hotel and filming location. In addition, a security team of 50 to 70 members is at work for his safety.
Sikandar is directed by AR Murugadoss and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, who is also a good friend of the actor. It also stars Rashmika Mandanna, Sathyaraj, Prateik Babbar, and Sharman Joshi in significant roles and will be released on Eid 2025.
