Bollywood megastar Salman Khan has once again demonstrated his unwavering dedication to his craft, as he continues to work on his latest film ‘Sikandar’ amidst serious security concerns. The seasoned actor, who recently received a new death threat from the infamous Lawrence Bishnoi gang, arrived at the filming location, bolstered by a dependable entourage, to further his commitment to the A.R. Murugadoss-directed venture alongside co-star Rashmika Mandanna.
A video taken at the illustrious Falaknuma Palace in Hyderabad has surfaced on Twitter, purportedly showing scenes being shot for ‘Sikandar.’ This footage, ostensibly leaked from the set, gained rapid traction on social media, sparking enthusiasm among fervent fans who gathered outside the opulent grounds, eager for a rare chance to see their favorite stars in action. Additional images and video snippets circulated afterward, with glimpses of Rashmika Mandanna mastering her script and Salman Khan’s arrival, which added to the already mounting excitement surrounding the project.
Despite the escalating death threats levied against him, Salman Khan remains resolute in his professional endeavors. On Tuesday, a distressing report from the police confirmed the receipt of a new threat directed at the actor, sparking a rigorous security assessment by authorities concerned with Khan’s safety. The threat, delivered to the Mumbai traffic police helpline, was reportedly read just after midnight by on-duty personnel. It ominously demanded that if Khan wishes to remain safe, he must pay Rs 5 crore or alternatively, visit the Bishnoi community’s temple to offer an apology.
At the heart of this threat is an individual claiming to be closely related to the notorious gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. The contents of this communication carried a menacing warning that should Khan fail to adhere to these demands, the unyielding gang would take severe action, highlighting their continued reign of intimidation.

In light of these threats, significant security measures have been implemented on set to ensure the actor’s safety, demonstrating how seriously these threats are being taken. The alarming nature of the threat has not only escalated concerns amongst fans and the public but also triggered a comprehensive investigation by the police to identify and apprehend those responsible.
This is not the first time Salman Khan has found himself targeted by criminal elements. Nonetheless, his focus remains sharp and unfaltering, as he continues with his filming schedule. ‘Sikandar,’ marking another collaboration with esteemed producer Sajid Nadiadwala, reunites the celebrated actor-director duo from previous hits like ‘Kick,’ ‘Judwaa,’ and ‘Mujhse Shaadi Karogi.’ Expected to hit theatres next Eid, the anticipation surrounding the film is palpable among audiences eager for a new Khan-Nadiadwala creation.
Apart from his commitments to ‘Sikandar,’ Khan continues to juggle multiple ventures, including hosting the controversial reality show, Bigg Boss 18. With weekly episodes featuring the charismatic host airing every Friday and Saturday at 9.30 pm, Salman’s dual roles in bollywood and television underscore a relentless work ethic that persistently captivates fans.
While the specter of personal threats may be daunting, Salman Khan’s sustained professionalism and tenacity reflect an undeterred spirit. As he navigates through hazardous personal circumstances, his determination to succeed and deliver quality entertainment anchors him as a luminary in the Indian film industry.
The industry and his fans remain vigilant and hopeful for his safety as scaffolding efforts to neutralize any imminent dangers are undertaken by law enforcement. With all eyes on his forthcoming projects, Khan continues to carry a substantial weight of responsibility both as a cinematic icon and a significant role model for many of his supporters.
