Ranveer Singh receives Rs 10 crore extortion threat as Mumbai Police launch investigation
Ranveer Singh has received a Rs 10 crore extortion threat, triggering a full investigation by Mumbai Police and a tightening of his security arrangements. The threat was delivered through a WhatsApp voice note sent from an international number, with early technical checks indicating the use of a VPN and suggesting possible links to the Lawrence Bishnoi network.
Police sources confirmed that the message included a clear demand for money along with an explicit warning. Officers are now working to trace the origin of the number and identify the individual responsible. One official involved in the inquiry said the voice note is being “verified and investigated” as part of a wider probe into whether the threat is connected to known gang activity.
