In the last year, Salman Khan has received several death threats and has to move around with increased security. Addressing this, Salman recently said on a TV show, “Security is better than insecurity. . . Now it is not possible to ride a bicycle on the road and go alone anywhere. And more than that, now I have this problem that when I am in traffic, then there is so much security, vehicles creating inconvenience to other people. . . There is a serious threat that’s why there is security. ” He added, “Now there are so many Shera’s around me, so many guns are going around with me that I am myself scared these days. ”
