Can you imagine your favorite comedian's restaurant being under siege because of a celebrity friend? Well, that’s the shocking reality facing Kapil Sharma! An audio recording from a notorious gang member, revealing threats against Sharma's establishment, has surfaced, and it’s sending chills down spines.

The audio clip, obtained exclusively by India Today, features Harry Boxer, a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. In a chilling warning, he states that the comedian's restaurant in Canada was specifically targeted due to Sharma's invite to superstar Salman Khan for the inauguration festivities. The gangster ominously declares that any director, producer, or artist collaborating with Salman will face dire consequences, stating they will be shot in the chest.

“The first and now second firing at Kapil Sharma's restaurant happened because he had invited Salman Khan to the inauguration on a Netflix show,” the clip reveals. Salman Khan had graced the first episode of season 3 of 'The Great Indian Kapil Show', which premiered on Netflix on June 21. This seemingly harmless episode has led to real-life consequences.

Salman has been a target of Lawrence Bishnoi for some time now. Bishnoi, who is currently incarcerated, has a notorious history linked to the 1998 killing of a black buck, a sacred animal to the Bishnoi community. The audio further escalates tension, as the gangster brazenly states that anyone who associates with Salman would be responsible for their own death: “If anyone works with Salman, whether a small-time actor or a small-time director, we will not spare anyone. We will kill them. We will go to any extent necessary to kill them.”

In a disturbing turn of events, Kapil Sharma's Kap's Cafe in Surrey recently came under gunfire for the second time in less than a month. On Thursday, at least 25 shots were fired, shattering windows, but thankfully, no one was injured. Goldy Dhillon, a member of the Bishnoi gang, took to social media to claim responsibility for the attack, further deepening the web of violence surrounding this case.

Sources indicate that Goldy Dhillon is currently residing in Germany, wanted by the Punjab Police and the National Investigation Agency (NIA) for multiple extortion and murder charges. Remarkably, the restaurant had already been targeted on July 10, with the infamous Babbar Khalsa International operative Harjit Singh Laddi claiming responsibility, citing derogatory remarks made by Sharma about Nihang Sikhs as the motive for that earlier attack.
