The Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has resumed filming for his upcoming movie, 'Sikandar,' in Hyderabad, India, with an unprecedented level of security. This move comes in response to death threats made by gangster Lawrence Bishnoi's gang, raising concerns for the actor's safety. Reports indicate that the film's production team has converted the Falaknuma Palace Hotel, where shooting is taking place, into a fortress, implementing a multi-tier security system. This includes private security, government-authorized personnel, and a team hand-picked by Salman's longtime bodyguard, Shera. Guests at the hotel are subject to multiple security checks, and access to filming locations is strictly controlled.
The comprehensive security measures put in place highlight the serious threat perceived by the production team. The report mentions the presence of around 50-70 security personnel at all times, creating a highly guarded environment for Salman Khan. This emphasizes the importance of safety for the star and the impact of threats on the filmmaking process. While this level of security may disrupt the flow of typical film productions, the priority remains the well-being of the cast and crew, particularly Salman Khan, given the serious nature of the threats.
Beyond the security aspect, 'Sikandar' itself is a highly anticipated project, drawing attention for its star-studded cast including Suniel Shetty and Kajal Aggarwal. The film, produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, is slated for a release next year. While the security measures surrounding the film are likely to remain in place for the duration of the shoot, the focus remains on completing production successfully. Salman Khan is expected to move to Dubai after the Hyderabad schedule wraps up, continuing his busy schedule with his 'Da-Bangg Reloaded' show. Despite the challenges posed by security concerns, 'Sikandar' promises to be a commercially successful venture, adding to Salman Khan's already impressive filmography.
