Ayushmann Khurrana Targeted in Extortion Threat, Lawrence Gang Member Allegedly Demands Crores
Bollywood actor Ayushmann Khurrana has reportedly received a threatening audio message from an unidentified person claiming to be associated with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. According to media reports, the sender allegedly demanded crores of rupees from the actor and issued a threatening warning. The incident has once again raised concerns over the safety of Bollywood celebrities, particularly after a series of recent threats and extortion attempts targeting film personalities. Mumbai Police have reportedly launched an investigation into the audio clip to establish the identity of the sender and verify his claimed connection with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. According to police sources cited in media reports, investigators are comparing the voice in the recording with available voice samples in their records. However, the alleged gang connection has not yet been independently established. The latest development comes days after actor Tusshar Kapoor reportedly received an extortion threat from a person claiming to be Lawrence Bishnoi gang member Harry Boxer. The caller allegedly demanded ₹5 crore from the actor. However, preliminary voice analysis by the Mumbai Crime Branch reportedly found that the caller’s voice did not match the available samples of Harry Boxer, raising suspicions that someone may have been impersonating the gangster. The developments also follow the October 18 firing incident outside actor Tiger Shroff’s residence in Mumbai’s Juhu area. The incident had heightened security concerns among Bollywood personalities. Police are now investigating the threatening messages and trying to identify those responsible. Meanwhile, Ayushmann Khurrana has not publicly commented on the reported threat so far. The investigation is ongoing, and further details are awaited from the Mumbai Police.
