After Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, Mithun Chakraborty gets threat from Lawrence Bishnoi¡¯s Pakistani aide
Weeks after Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan became targets of death threats, the radar has now expanded to Mithun Chakraborty. Here¡¯s why Lawrence Bisnoi¡¯s Pakistani aide Shahzad Bhatti is upset with the actor.
Lawrence Bishnoi¡¯s threat streak is expanding across Bollywood and after Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, his aide has made actor Mithun Chakraborty their new target. In a video released by Pakistani don Shahzad Bhatti, the Dubai-based gangster is seen threatening Chakraborty over his recent political comment against the Muslim community and advising him to apologize within 10-15 days.
Why has Mithun Chakraborty received a threat from Bishnoi's aide?
Shahzad Bhatti who had a long association with Lawrence Bishnoi was seemingly miffed by Mithun¡¯s recent remarks that he made during a BJP membership drive launch in Kolkata on October 27. While two FIRs were filed against the actor immediately after the incident, Bhatti demands an apology as soon as possible.
Said in the presence of Home Minister Amit Shah, Mithun¡¯s Hindi remark against Muslims can be loosely translated to, ¡°If you think you can throw us in the Bhagirathi river, one day will come when we will also throw¡ not in the Bhagirathi because it is our mother¡ but we will bury you on the other side.¡±
¡°We need such workers who can fight head-on. We need such workers who can challenge, ¡®Come, fire at me, show how many bullets you have in your gun¡¯. If you bring down one fruit from our tree, we will take down four,¡± the new Dadasaheb Phalke awardee said. Reacting to the same, Bhatti said that he understands that people of his age often say things without thinking but he should now apologize or his gang may have to repent.
This comes days after Shah Rukh Khan received a threat from another Bishnoi aide over an old dialogue of him referring to deer hunting in the movie Anjaam (1994). Salman Khan, on the other hand, has been a target of constant threats from the Bishnoi gang over a 1998 Blackbuck case in which he was once named. Though he continues to shoot for Bigg Boss 18 and Sikandar, the actor's security remains heightened.
