Mumbai, Dec 8 (NationPress) Bhojpuri star Pawan Singh has officially lodged a police complaint following alarming threats from an individual who claims to be affiliated with the Bishnoi gang.
The threats, which included ominous warnings against performing alongside Salman Khan and extortion demands, have led law enforcement to initiate an investigation.

Both cases are currently being handled by the Anti-Extortion Cell of the Mumbai Crime Branch.
Singh's team reached out to the police to file a formal complaint. Authorities have acknowledged that they are actively investigating the origins of these threats to guarantee the actor's safety.
This situation developed just a day after Pawan Singh announced via Instagram that he would be performing alongside Salman Khan during the “Bigg Boss 19” finale. He shared on his Instagram, “Bhaijaan ke saath Bigg Boss 19 ke Grand Finale mein humare saath judenge Powerstar Pawan Singh.” The Bhojpuri singer was set to perform with Salman Khan and former contestant Neelam Giri.
