Salman Khan is currently busy shooting for AR Murugadoss’ film Sikandar in Hyderabad, where his security has been significantly heightened amid recent threats. The Bollywood superstar, who arrived in Hyderabad last week for the next phase of filming, is now facing a new threat connected to a song that reportedly mentions jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. According to a report by Mid-Day, the production team has increased security measures around Khan, implementing stringent safety protocols at the shoot location.

Salman Khan’s Security Measures At ‘Sikandar’ Shoot Location
Regarding the security measures taken for Salman Khan, a source revealed to the portal, “There are three standing sets, of which two are in the city, but the main location is the palace hotel. Even though they are shooting in one portion, the production team has secured access to the entire hotel and grounds, transforming it into a fortress. While guests can book their stay in the hotel, they have to undergo two levels of screenings, one by the hotel and the other by Salman’s security team. Access to the location is controlled—only those with prior permission can enter, following background and ID checks. The staff also undergo daily screenings, and there is a strict no-swapping policy.”
Salman Khan Reportedly Receives ‘Four-Tier Security System’
The report further notes that Salman Khan has engaged a private security firm, establishing a four-tier security system around him. The source explained, “Salman has a four-tier security system. This includes the private security detail, consisting of ex-paramilitary personnel, that has been hired. Then there is the team hand-picked by Salman’s long-time bodyguard Shera, and the cover that has been granted by the Hyderabad police and Mumbai police. In all, the superstar is accompanied by a 50-to-70-member security personnel.” ‘Sikandar’ Set Video Leaked Online: Visuals From Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna’s Hyderabad Shoot Surface Amid New Death Threat to Bollywood Superstar.
