Salman Khan has been receiving death threats for some time. Reportedly, the Bishnoi gang from Punjab has been behind the threats. The death threats started a few days after the tragic killing of famous Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala. The actor and his father Salim Khan have been receiving these threats to extort money.
As a precautionary measure, Salman and Salim Khan both acquired licenses for guns legally and it was discussed a lot in the media. In the midst of all these incidents, an old video clip from the Koffee With Karan show featuring Salman Khan as the guest has gone viral.
The video is from an episode when Salman had come as the only guest and during the rapid-fire Karan asked his typical question, “If at a gunpoint you are forced to have a gay encounter who would you choose?” Bhaijan immediately replied,” Aisi koi gun bani hi Nahi hai Karan but if it makes you feel good it is you, Karan.”
It was quite an entertaining episode as the Bollywood superstar gave a lot of in-between hints related to the affair between Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif and the possible involvement of Hrithik Roshan in it. While all that was in fun, in real life, death threats can be frightening and that is why Salman Khan has taken the necessary step to protect himself and his family by buying a gun.
Work-wise, Salman Khan has already wrapped up shooting for his movie Tiger 3 with Katrina Kaif and has also completed most of the portion of Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali. He is also expected to play a cameo in Shah Rukh Khan’s comeback film Pathaan which also stars John Abraham and Deepika Padukone in important roles.
Incidentally, both Pathaan and Tiger 3 are being produced by YRF and reports are that even SRK is also going to make a guest appearance in Salman Khan’s third installment from the Tiger franchise.
