Renowned Indian film producer Salim Khan has firmly stated that his son, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, will not issue an apology to the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang. This statement comes in response to threats and extortion demands from the gang, which has a long-standing feud with the actor.
Salim Khan emphasized that his son has a deep love for animals and has never engaged in the illegal hunting of blackbucks, a charge that has been a contentious issue for Salman since 1998. The incident in question occurred during the filming of Hum Saath Saath Hain in Rajasthan’s Jodhpur, which led to a lengthy legal battle.

In an interview with an Indian news channel, Salim Khan described the gang’s demands as blatant extortion and reiterated that Salman Khan would not apologize, standing firm against the threats posed by the group.
