Gippy also shared that he does not have a close personal relationship with Salman. “The reality is that I had only met Salman sir a few times while promoting films on Bigg Boss and during a trailer launch. We didn't even have a close friendship. But they assumed otherwise, and that led to the incident,” he said.
All About Alleged Firings
Let us tell you that after Gippy Grewal's incident, shots were reportedly fired outside another Punjabi singer, AP Dhillon's Canada home in 2024. The Bishnoi gang yet again had reportedly taken the responsibility for the same. The alleged issue was Dhillon releasing a music video that featured Salman Khan. In the same year, many reports suggested that assailants linked to the Bishnoi gang opened multiple rounds of shots outside Salman Khan's Galaxy Apartments in Bandra, Mumbai. Just recently, an assailant, on his bike, reportedly fired outside a gym in Paschim Vihar, Delhi, owned by Punjabi singer Guru Randhawa. No casualties or injuries were reported.
Why Is Salman Khan On The Target?
According to a report in PTI, the firing incident in Delhi further led to the arrest of two alleged Lawrence Bishnoi gang members. As per the police, the two alleged shooters were linked to gangster Anil Pandit, also an alleged member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, who is believed to be operating from the USA. For those who don't know, the Bishnoi gang has beef with Salman because of his alleged involvement in the 1997 poaching of two blackbucks in Rajasthan.
