Mumbai Police said that as of now, they do not think the call should be taken seriously, but they are investigating why the minor behaved in such a way.
This is not the first time Salman has faced such threats. On March 26, one person identified as Dhakad Ram was arrested for sending a threat mail to Salman. He alleged that the superstar would meet the same fate as "Sidhu Moosewala." A case was registered at Bandra police station, and the accused was apprehended and taken into custody. The Maharashtra government provided Salman with Y category security after assessing the threat perceptions, as the actor had received a threat letter from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
In conclusion, Salman Khan is facing serious death threats, and the Mumbai Police have provided him with adequate security to keep him safe. Salman is taking all necessary precautions and being extremely cautious, acknowledging that his life is at risk.
