Following threats to Bollywood actor Salman Khan from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, the Maharashtra government has upgraded the security of the superstar to Y+ category. Similarly, Akshay Kumar and Anupam Kher have also been given X-category security.

According to reports, Salman was given regular police protection by the Mumbai Police up till now. However, now the actor will be given a Y+ security cover. This means he will have four armed security personnel on his person at all times.

Apart from him, Akshay Kumar will now be given X-category security, which means he will have three security officers in shifts protecting him. Anupam Kher has also been given the same level of security. The cost of the protection will be borne by the celebs, a report in Mid Day stated.

Salman and his father, Salim Khan were sent a threat letter in June this year that threatened to do a ‘Moosewala’ to Salman and Salim. Sidhu Moosewala was a Punjabi singer who was murdered in Punjab earlier this year. Mumbai Police had arrested multiple gangsters from Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang, many of whom confessed to targeting Salman.

Reports were rife that gangsters attempted twice, once outside his Bandra home during his birthday celebration in 2017 and once at his Panvel farmhouse in 2018.

As far as Akshay and Anupam are concerned, the veteran actor was reportedly given upgraded security cover after he received threats following the release of his film ‘The Kashmir Files’ while the ‘Khiladi’ star was granted security based on social media threats over his nationality.
