It's not uncommon for our Bollywood celebrities to receive hoax calls and threats. However, sometimes they can get seriously dangerous. Like the time when the team of 'Padmaavat' was threatened. Well, looks like post Deepika Padukone and Sanjay Leela Bhansali receiving death threats, Salman Khan too has been facing the same issue.

The actor's security has recently been beefed up after he received intimidating threats from Laurence Bishnoi, a gangster. On Sunday night, when the actor was shooting for the finale of 'Bigg Boss 11', his security was doubled and in addition to the posse of security men and bodyguards from his trusted Shera’s team, Salman was also in the company of a few policemen, who ensured that he was at a safe distance from anyone who could mean trouble.

Laurence Bishboi belongs to the Bishnoi community for whom the blackbuck or the chinkara, is sacred. He had said that Salman will be killed in Jodhpur for allegedly killing a blackbuck during the shooting of the film 'Hum Saath - Saath Hain' two decades ago.“But our team does not want to take any chances. The chances of the gangster saying that the attack could be in Jodhpur could merely be a red herring,” said a source close to the actor. Also, the buzz is that the shooting of one of the sequences for Salman's next, 'Race 3' was cancelled, because of threats to Salman.

Now this is scary, isn't it?
