A close source of Salman Khan said to a media outlet that the actor has a set process for security ever since he has received death threats. It implies that he must be guided from point A to point B within a predetermined amount of time, particularly if he is in the centre of a crowded public area. The first video, which appears to show an irate Salman gazing at Vicky, was actually a follow-up to a backstage incident. They had made brief introductions, which were really friendly and not at all unpleasant. There were numerous managers and other security personnel for actors blocking Salman's path as he walked out, so his security physically had to make room for him.
