New Delhi: Salman Khan faced a potentially dangerous situation when gunshots were fired outside his Mumbai residence early Sunday morning (April 14). Though no injuries were reported, the incident has sparked concern among fans and celebrities alike. Multiple people, including Rakhi Sawant and KRK, have had varying reactions to the incident.
Pooja Bhatt expressed her shock and called for enhanced surveillance in the Bandra area. The actress wrote, "Horrific and condemnable. If this can happen with a police van parked outside the Khan residence for protection then it is fair to say that safety is an illusion. Need more stringent surveillance in Bandra for certain. Robberies were rife a while ago and now a shoot out? Scary."

He must have arranged all this to get publicity and sympathy! Because he knows that I am going to reveal what he did with Sushant Singh.”
