Ranveer Singh receives threat

Earlier this week, Singh's manager received a threat in which allegedly "Harry Boxer" threatened that the Bishnoi gang would deal with Singh in such a way that his "next seven generations will remember it."

"You are very fond of giving advice to people and telling them to file police complaints. You too have filed a police complaint. No problem," the voice said, as per ANI.

"We have complete details of every manager and every person who works with you. Where they live, When they leave office. When they return. Where their families stay. We will not tell you anything. We will start targeting the people working under you. Then you will come to your senses," it further added.

The sender reportedly also asked Bollywood to fall in line.

Police previously shared that the sender used a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to hide their network identity and location.

Reportedly, the Dhurandhar star did not file any complaint initially, but police enhanced his security cover, as per officials.

Aayush Sharma

Apart from Ranveer Singh, ANI reported that actor Aayush Sharma, who is Salman Khan's brother-in-law, also received a threatening email.

Authorities shared that the threats may be part of a coordinated intimidation campaign targeting prominent figures in the film industry.

Rohit Shetty house firing case

The threats arrived after the firing incident outside Bollywood filmmaker Rohit Shetty's residence in Mumbai. The Bishnoi gang had claimed responsibility for the firing incident through a social media post, police said.

Multiple arrests were made during the ongoing probe into the matter.

In connection with the case, the Mumbai Crime Branch has invoked sections of the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) against multiple accused, suspecting the involvement of an organised crime network.
