Reel gets Real: Salman Khan’s lyricist sent the actor threats to publicise song; arrested
Salman Khan's lyricist from his upcoming film, Sohail Pasha, sent the actor and himself threats seeking publicity.
Salman Khan, the Bollywood superstar, spent nearly four hours at the Mumbai Crime Branch recounting the harrowing events for a statement, of a night that shattered the peace outside his Bandra residence. The incident, which occurred on April 14, involved a frightening firing incident just outside the Galaxy Apartments, where Salman resides.

Anmol Vishnoi, the brother of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, was identified as a key figure in orchestrating the attack. It was revealed that the shooters received instructions and weapons from Anmol, along with a payment of Rs 3 lakh for executing the plan.
