'They'll cut my head off': ‘Kala Hiran’ producer Amit Jani claims death threats after Salman Khan sends legal notice

‘Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy’, a film drawing from the blackbuck poaching case tied to Salman Khan, has landed in fresh trouble. The actor's legal team reportedly issued a notice to stop the film soon after it was announced. Producer Amit Jani responded by tearing up the notice publicly and alleged that he has been receiving threats from Khan's fans online.

Amit Jani claims he received 1,000 death threat messages in 36 hours

Amit shared a video of himself tearing up the notice, alleging that he has been flooded with threats from Salman Khan's supporters. “People keep asking me, the media, friends, what response should be given to the notice from Salman Khan. This notice, what should I reply to it? For the past 36 hours, all his fans from Dharavi to Jogeshwari have sent 1,000 messages, including death threats, saying they'll cut my head off if I come to Mumbai. So whom should I answer? Should I respond to the thousands of abuses delivered through Salman Khan's toolkit, to those threats, or should I answer this notice? This is my reply to that notice.”




He concluded, “Now your threats have arrived, those from the people who gave you your toolkit: your rude fans, the street thugs raised in Dharavi, or the so-called fans living in Dongri and Jogeshwar, and the kind of messages we're getting from D company saying they'll finish off your family. You've got the reply to that notice. Now we will deal with D company.”

Amit Jani's 'Kala Hiran' based on Salman Khan's blackbuck poaching case

‘Kala Hiran’ got a lot of attention last month when its first poster came out. The film is based on the blackbuck poaching case involving Salman Khan. Shortly after the film was announced, Salman reportedly sent a legal notice to the makers, asking them to stop making and promoting the movie. The notice says the film hurts his personal rights and that the blackbuck case is still going on in the Rajasthan High Court. The film is a mix of courtroom drama and crime thriller, and will also show the famous rivalry between Salman Khan and gangster Lawrence Bishnoi on screen.
