Four Bollywood personalities – comedian Kapil Sharma, actor Rajpal Yadav, choreographer Remo D'Souza, and actor-singer Sugandha Mishra – have allegedly received death threats from Pakistan. According to a report by NDTV, an FIR has been lodged in Mumbai, and the police are actively investigating the matter.
Threat to Kapil Sharma and others
The threat email that has sent ripples across the entertainment industry reads, “We are monitoring your recent activities and we believe it is important that we bring to your attention a sensitive matter. This is not a publicity stunt or an attempt to harass you, we urge you to treat this message with utmost seriousness and confidentiality.” The email was signed by an unknown sender under the name ‘BISHNU.’
Sent on December 14, 2024, the email originated from don99284@gmail.com and was addressed to Rajpal Yadav’s team email, teamrajpalyadav@gmail.com. It demanded a response within eight hours, warning of severe personal and professional consequences if ignored. Alarmed by the threat, Rajpal Yadav’s wife, Radha, immediately filed a police complaint at Amboli Police Station, leading to the registration of an FIR under Section 351(3) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
The authorities also confirmed that the email was sent from Pakistan. Mumbai police have launched a thorough investigation and said that they are taking the matter seriously.
