In 2022, while on a morning stroll near his home, Salim Khan found a note saying “Salim Khan…Salman Khan ..bahut jald aapka Moose Wala hoga” –a reference to Sidhu Moose Wala, a Punjabi rapper, who was brutally shot dead near his home on May 29, 2022, shaking the entertainment industry. 

Following the multiple threats to the Mumbai-based actor, the city police have upgraded the security cover of Salman Khan, plus issued him a permit for a gun licence and last year, the actor acquired a new bullet-proof SUV as additional protection to move around.  (Maxim News)
