Mumbai: Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has received another death threat, this time via a message sent to the official WhatsApp number of the Worli Traffic Department. The threat warned that the actor would be killed at his Bandra residence and that his car would be blown up with a bomb.

Following the receipt of the message, the Worli Police registered an FIR against the unidentified sender and have initiated efforts to trace the source of the threat.

Security has been tightened around Khan’s home at Galaxy Apartments in Bandra. The actor and his team have yet to release an official statement regarding the incident.

This threat adds to a series of ongoing intimidations targeting the actor, allegedly linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. In April 2024, a threat letter was dropped near Khan’s father, Salim Khan, during his morning walk, escalating the security concerns for the family.

In response to the threats, Salman Khan has installed bulletproof glass in his home and limited his public appearances. He has also reduced outdoor shoots and maintains a restricted crew for indoor filming.

On Sunday, the actor was seen at Mumbai airport in a serious mood, accompanied by his bodyguard Shera, who was visibly agitated with the media presence.

Police investigations are underway, and further details are awaited.

Chennai: Days after the AIADMK formally rejoined the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), party general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami (EPS) made it clear that no coalition government will be formed in Tamil Nadu following the 2026 Assembly elections, directly contradicting a recent assertion by senior BJP leader Amit Shah.

Palaniswami's remarks contradict Shah’s statement made in Chennai on April 11, where the Union Minister had said that a coalition government led by the AIADMK would soon come to power in the state.

Addressing reporters at the State Secretariat, EPS asserted that Shah’s remarks were being misinterpreted. “He didn’t say it would be a coalition government. You are misinterpreting and trying to play tricks. Please stop that,” Palaniswami was quoted as saying by The New Indian Express.

Clarifying further, the former Chief Minister emphasised that Shah’s remarks merely indicated that the “AIADMK-BJP alliance” would form the government, and not that there would be a power-sharing arrangement. Palaniswami emphasised that while the alliance would be led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the national level, it would be led by him in Tamil Nadu.

Meanwhile, senior AIADMK leaders told The Indian Express that EPS’s clarification was prompted by significant internal feedback. “There were several calls and feedback messages from our leaders and well-wishers who believed Shah’s speech hinted at some form of power-sharing. That’s why he had to say it clearly on Wednesday,” IE report quoted one party leader as saying.

Though the BJP has not issued an official response to EPS’s comments, party insiders reportedly said EPS’s stand was expected and no offence was taken.
