Indian actress and dancer Rakhi Sawant says she wants to be a bodyguard for Bollywood superstar Salman Khan amid death threats.
The loop that repeats it ‘Big boss’ contestant shares with the presenter of the program is not a secret for anyone, and therefore, in the midst of the death threats that the ‘dabangg’ has received late, Sawant is ready to receive the bullet fired at Khan if necessary.
Reacting to the news that Mumbai police have granted the actor a gun license, Sawant said in a recent outing that he is happy Khan got the permit. Addressing the actor, Rakhi Sawant said, “Salman, sir, don’t tense up. Nothing will happen to you. Everyone’s blessings are with you and I continue to pray for him day and night.”
“I prayed for his gun license as well so that he can get it and stay safe,” Sawant said, adding that if needed, he can become his (Salman Khan) bodyguard. “I will walk with him and if someone shoots, the bullet will hit me.”
It is pertinent to mention that the actor had applied for the license following his meeting with Mumbai Police Commissioner Vivek Phansalkar when the two discussed the threatening letter.
Additionally, Khan also has armor and bulletproof lenses installed on his SUV, which are now thicker than those on a normal vehicle.
The development came in the wake of the threatening letter his father, filmmaker Salim Khan, received from an unknown person. Khan, during his morning walk along the boardwalk, found a token that read: “Moosa Wale jaisa kar dunga (will do the same [with you] as Moose Wala).”
An FIR was registered against the unknown person at the Bandra Police Station in Mumbai.
