New Delhi: Stand-up comedian and television show host Kapil Sharma is the latest among the Indian celebrities who received email carrying death threat and warning not to divulge the matter.

Sharma has been informed in the email that his recent activities were being watched and the sender called it a sensitive issue. Claiming ‘not to be a publicity stunt’ or an attempt to harass the artiste, the sender has directed Sharma to treat the mail with seriousness and confidentiality.
In addition, the sender has signed off with the name ‘Bishnu’.
Rajpal Yadav, Sugandha Mishra and Remo D’Souza had also filed police complaints recently that they were sent similar threats online. The senders gave the celebrities eight hours to reply, warning that they would have to face consequences in their personal lives as well as professional. The Mumbai Police were dealing with the cases with extreme urgency given the fact that one celebrity after another is being targeted.
It may also be noted that that Indian film star Saif Ali Khan was stabbed multiple times by an intruder who entered his house in Mumbai while Salman Khan has beefed up the security system at home and is learned to have installed bullet-proof windows on his balcony after receiving threat messages.
