In March 2023, Salman Khan's security was increased after receiving a threat from Lawrence Bishnoi. He has received Y+ category security from the Maharashtra government. In June 2022, Salman and his father Salim Khan had received a threatening letter, in which it was written that the same fate would befall Salman as happened to Sidhu Moosewala.
NIA had said that Khan was on the top of the list of 10 people whom jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi had threatened to kill. The Bishnoi community is angry over the 1998 blackbuck poaching incident, citing which Lawrence had threatened to kill them in a TV interview.
