Shah Rukh Khan Faces Death Threats
Following the recent threats to Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan has now become the latest victim in a series of threatening incidents involving Bollywood actors. The threat comes just months after Shah Rukh Khan’s highly successful films Pathaan and Jawan, both of which earned massive box-office success. Despite the fame and success, the actor's life is now under threat, with calls demanding money for his safety.
2. Details of the Threatening Call
The call was made to the Bandra Police Station in Mumbai, where the caller demanded Rs 50 lakh from Shah Rukh Khan, threatening harm to the actor if the ransom was not paid. The call was traced to Raipur in Chhattisgarh, and the person behind the call was identified as Faizan. However, Faizan claimed that his phone had been stolen on November 2, casting doubt on whether he was the true culprit or if the call had been made by someone else using his phone.
The police have registered a case based on the threatening call and are currently investigating the matter.
3. Shah Rukh Khan's Security Concerns
This threat to Shah Rukh Khan follows similar incidents that occurred last year after the success of Pathaan and Jawan. In response to these threats, the government provided Shah Rukh Khan with Y Plus security, which includes round-the-clock protection by armed personnel. The new threats have only intensified concerns for his safety, and authorities are taking the matter very seriously.
4. Salman Khan Also Targeted
Shah Rukh Khan isn’t the only Bollywood superstar to face such threats. Earlier, Salman Khan received a threatening message on November 5, demanding Rs 5 crore from him and threatening to kill him if the money was not paid. This threat was reportedly received by the Mumbai Police Traffic Control, and authorities have launched a separate investigation into the matter.
Additionally, Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother, who had been allegedly involved in threatening Salman Khan, was arrested from Karnataka. His arrest raised further concerns about the growing threats targeting Bollywood celebrities.
