Just like Salman Khan was shot at, I’ll come to your house and shoot you with an AK-47.”

"This is your last warning. Before you say anything about Asim, your name will be on the list. Lawrence Bishnoi is with Asim," also read the text.

Sharing the screenshot, Shukla tagged Punjab police and wrote, “DEATH THREATS to my family! @DGPPunjabPolice @PunjabPoliceInd @DgpChdPolice @ChdPol. Person seems to be from Chandigarh / Mohali . Please act firmly & promptly. To anyone who recognises the person plz report to @DGPPunjabPolice.”

“Paid media ain’t got a spine, just a rate card. They print what they’re told, I move when I decide. Keep shouting ‘kicked out’, I kicked the script and flipped the game. Next headline? Make it count,” posted the rapper.
