The actor's visit comes at a time when he is under intense security measures due to repeated threats he has received in recent weeks. On Wednesday, Salman was not the only one from his family seen at the polling booth—his father, veteran screenwriter Salim Khan, and brother Arbaaz Khan were also spotted casting their votes in the city. 

Salman Khan's recent security threats 

Salman Khan’s security has been a significant concern lately due to multiple threats against him. Earlier this month, the actor received another threat allegedly from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. The threat, reportedly sent to the Mumbai Traffic Control Room, warned of dire consequences for a lyricist over a song that supposedly linked Salman to the jailed gangster. This marks the fifth such threat in a span of a few weeks.
