Old Video Of Vivek Oberoi Praising Bishnoi Community Goes Viral Amid Salman Khan-Lawrence Bishnoi Controversy
Amid Lawrence Bishnoi taking responsibility for the killing of Baba Siddique, who was Salman Khan's friend, an old video of actor Vivek Oberoi praising the Bishnoi community has resurfaced.
Gangster Lawrence Bishnoi took responsibility for the recent killing of NCP leader Baba Siddique, who was a close friend to Salman Khan. Amid this development, an old video of actor Vivek Oberoi praising the Bishnoi community has resurfaced, causing a stir on social media. The clip, taken from a February 2023 event in Dubai, has gone viral, particularly in light of Vivek’s past with Salman.
Vivek Oberoi's old video goes viral
In the viral video, Vivek Oberoi, speaking in Hindi, can be heard praising the Bishnoi community’s compassion towards animals. He says, “Try searching for the Bishnoi community on Google, and you won’t find such an example anywhere in the world. While many of us feed cow's milk to our children, the Bishnoi community is unique. If a fawn’s mother dies, Bishnoi mothers take the baby deer into their arms and feed them milk as they would their own children. This is something you won’t witness anywhere else.”

Netizens react
The resurfacing of this video has led to mixed reactions online. Many have commented on the timing, given Vivek’s strained history with Salman Khan. One user remarked, “Dushman Ka Dushman Lawrence Ka Dost (An enemy’s enemy is Lawrence’s friend),” while another suggested, “He’s getting his revenge.”
Vivek’s turbulent relationship with Salman Khan is well known. Back in 2003, during a high-profile press conference, Oberoi had accused Salman of threatening him due to his relationship with actress Aishwarya Rai, who had recently split from Salman at the time.
Salman Khan-Lawrence Bishnoi tension
The resurfaced video comes at a time when tensions between Salman Khan and Lawrence Bishnoi are at an all-time high. Despite being in prison, Bishnoi’s animosity towards the actor continues to make headlines, especially after the recent murder of former Maharashtra minister Baba Siddique, a close associate of Salman Khan. Siddique was gunned down by three attackers in Mumbai, and Bishnoi’s gang has claimed responsibility for the killing.
A Facebook post allegedly linked to Bishnoi’s gang was shared by a user named Shubuu Lonkar, that read, “Jo Salman Khan aur Dawood gang ki help karega apna hisab-kitab laga ke rakhna (Whoever helps Salman Khan and the Dawood Ibrahim gang, prepare to settle your scores).” Investigators believe Lonkar may be connected to Bishnoi’s gang.
The reason for Lawrence Bishnoi’s animosity towards Salman Khan is due to the 1998 blackbuck poaching case, when the actor was involved in the hunting of the revered animal while filming ‘Hum Saath-Saath Hain’ in Rajasthan.
