Amid security threats, Salman Khan gears up for Dabangg Reloaded Tour in Dubai
Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, who was last seen in the action film ‘Tiger 3’, is all set to perform for his Dabangg Reloaded Tour in Dubai, which is set to start from Saturday.
Mumbai, Dec 7 (IANS) Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, who was last seen in the action film ‘Tiger 3’, is all set to perform for his Dabangg Reloaded Tour in Dubai, which is set to start from Saturday.
On Saturday, the actor took to his Instagram, and shared a BTS video from the venue in which he could be seen rehearsing for the performance.
He wrote in the caption, “All set for tonight”.
The event will mark his first global appearance since receiving threats from gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. The Dabangg Reloaded Tour will kick-start on Saturday at Studio A, Dubai Harbour, the tour will then make its way to other Middle Eastern cities like Jeddah and Doha.
The actor will be joined by other stars on the tour including Tamannaah Bhatia, Jacqueliene Fernandez, Sonakshi Sinha, Aastha Gill, Sunil Grover, Prabhu Deva and Maniesh Paul.
This comes amid death threats issued to Salman by the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Earlier, in October this year, Salman’s close friend Baba Siddique was gunned down near his office in the Bandra area of Mumbai.
Salman on his part has been maintaining a low-profile, and has limited his public appearances after the assassination of Baba Siddique.
Salman’s tour to Dubai signals some respite for the actor as Dubai is known to be one of the safest places in the world. Recently, rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh, who also received threats from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang had stated that he prefers to stay in Dubai owing to the security in the middle eastern city.
Meanwhile, Baba Siddique, who was very close to the Hindi film fraternity, was killed by the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
He was known for throwing lavish Iftar parties and hosting several high-profile guests in those parties. It was a Baba Siddique Iftar party in 2013 that ended a long-standing feud between the two of the biggest superstars of Bollywood, Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan after a 5 year-long spat which divided the entire Bollywood into 2 camps of loyalists.
