The post, featuring him in the gym, was accompanied by a caption that read, “Thank you for the motivation.” The actor’s display of resilience comes amid mounting security concerns, following the latest threat targeting his life.
The new death threat was sent via WhatsApp to the official number of Mumbai’s Transport Department in Worli. The anonymous message warned of an attack on Salman Khan’s life, stating that the actor would be killed inside his home.
The threat also included a chilling warning to blow up his car with a bomb. Authorities have since registered an FIR against the unidentified sender and are investigating the threat's origin.

Security around Salman Khan has been heightened once again following this latest warning. Additional personnel have been deployed outside his residence, as police work to ascertain the authenticity of the message.
Pattern of threats
This incident comes nearly a year after gunshots were fired outside Khan's Bandra residence, a threat linked to the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Bishnoi, who has been vocal about his grievances over the blackbuck poaching case involving the actor, has allegedly been behind several intimidation attempts targeting Khan.
Salman Khan has faced numerous death threats over the years, with his involvement in the 1998 blackbuck poaching case being a key factor in the ongoing tensions. In recent years, the Bishnoi gang has repeatedly made headlines for threatening the actor’s life. Despite the threats, Khan has remained unshaken, continuing his work and maintaining a strong presence in Bollywood.
Salman Khan’s reaction to threats
Despite receiving multiple threats, Salman Khan has maintained a calm demeanor. In a recent press meet, when asked about the ongoing threats, he stated, “Bhagwan, Allah sab unpar hai. Jitni umar likhi hai, utni likhi hai. Bas yahi hai,” which translates to “God and Allah are watching over. My lifespan will be as long as fate allows. That’s it.” His words reflect his philosophical approach to the situation, demonstrating his belief in divine protection.
Support from friends and fans
In his latest social media post, Khan's friends from the industry, including actors Varun Dhawan and Ranveer Singh, expressed their support. Varun Dhawan dropped a fire emoji in the comments, while Ranveer Singh commented with “HARD HARD,” applauding the actor's dedication to fitness amid the challenges he faces.
Despite the ongoing threats and heightened security, Salman Khan continues to carry on with his daily life, staying focused on his fitness and work. His fans and the public have rallied around him, hoping for a swift resolution to this troubling situation.
