Bollywood actor Salman Khan was the target of an alleged murder attempt when gunmen opened fire outside his residence at Galaxy Apartments in Mumbai earlier this year. During court proceedings, Khan's bodyguard testified that the shooting was executed with the intent to kill the actor, highlighting the severity of the attack that has sent shockwaves through the film industry. The incident is linked to threats from criminal gangs, particularly those associated with jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Police reported that the assailants arrived on a motorcycle and fired multiple shots before escaping. Following the attack, Mumbai Police initiated a major investigation, tightening security for Khan due to ongoing threats. Prosecutors have characterized the attack as premeditated, aimed at intimidating and potentially eliminating the actor. The case remains under investigation, with multiple suspects facing charges of attempted murder, criminal conspiracy, and illegal possession of firearms.
