Despite Salman's elaborate security, his safety was compromised on December 4, Wednesday, after a man entered the venue in Matunga, Mumbai, where the actor was shooting for his upcoming project and threatened his team using jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi's name.
"Bishnoi ko bheju kya?" the man threatened, sending the actor's security team into a tizzy.
While Salman has not explicitly addressed the constant threats to his life from the Bishnoi gang yet, he was spotted at the oath-taking ceremony of Fadnavis.
Devendra Fadnavis will be sworn-in as the new Chief Minister of Maharashtra at a grand ceremony to be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and several other dignitaries.
Nationalist Congress Party chief Ajit Pawar and Shiv Sena chief Eknath Shinde are expected to take oath as Deputy Chief Ministers.
Ahead of the oath-taking ceremony, Amruta Fadnavis, wife of Devendra Fadnavis, remarked, "It is a beautiful day as Devendra ji becomes an MLA for the sixth time and takes on the Chief Minister's role for the third time. We are happy, but the sense of responsibility is even greater."
The Maharashtra Assembly Election 2024 resulted in a decisive victory for the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance, securing a landslide win with 235 seats. This marked a significant milestone for the BJP, which emerged as the single-largest party with 132 seats.
