Bollywood Actor Salman Khan Was Almost Assassinated But Was Saved Due To COVID-19

Usually we’d see famed Bollywood actor Salman Khan flexing his muscles while taking out bad guys in his films.

But what if some scenes from his action movies actually happened in real life?

The 54-year-old actor was recently a target of gang members in India who had the intention of assassinating him.

According to Times of India, the actor returned to his house in Mumbai after self-quarantining himself at his farmhouse in Panvel for four months.

A sharpshooter from Lawrence Bishnoi gang had apparently come to Salman’s residence and did a recce before carrying out his deadly plan.

The man has been arrested by the Faridabad police and upon investigations, it was found out that the sharpshooter had killed another resident in Salman’s apartment on 24 June and the actor was next on his list.

The gunman had arrived in Mumbai since January but couldn’t carry out his plan due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

Salman kinda looks like Hugh Jackman now.

This isn’t the first time the ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ star was a target of assasination; he was previously targeted by another member of the same gang but was later arrested in 2018.

So in a way, the pandemic actually saved Salman’s life and we’re glad to know that he’s safe and doing fine.
