Firing was reported outside Punjabi singer AP Dhillon’s house in Canada’s Vancouver on Monday. According to an India Today report, jailed Lawrence Bishnoi and gangster Rohit Godara have claimed responsibility for the shooting.
As per the report, gunshot was heard near Dhillon’s home in the Victoria Island area of the city. The Bishnoi-Godara gang as per messages circulating on social media claimed that it carried out shootings in Canada’s Victoria Island and in Toronto’s Woodbridge. HT.com has not independently verified the authenticity of this information.
Pointing to Dhillon’s alleged connections to actor Salman Khan, the gangsters warned the singer to “stay in his limits or he would meet a dog’s death,” the report claimed.
Recently, Salman Khan along with actor Sanjay Dutt appeared in Dhillon’s new track ‘Old Money’. The video song, shot like an action film, showed the Punjabi singer and his friends set out on a mission when Khan’s Bhai warns them that he should not come to rescue them this time. But that’s what he ends up doing in the end.
In the video, Sanjay Dutt dials up Dhillon to threaten him but lets the singer go when he gets to know that he is Salman Khan’s protege.
