Firing Outside Singer AP Dhillon’s House In Canada
As per reports, gunshots were heard near Dhillon’s residence in the Victoria Island area of Vancouver. According to NDTV, a purported post is circulating in which gangster Rohit Godara has claimed responsibility for the shootings at two locations in Canada—Victoria Island and Woodbridge, Toronto.
In the alleged post, Godara reportedly stated that he targeted Dhillon’s house after the singer collaborated with Salman Khan on a music video and issued him death threats as well.
The report indicates that the gangsters, referencing Dhillon’s supposed ties to actor Salman Khan, issued a warning to the singer, telling him to “stay within his limits or face a dog’s death.”
It is to be noted that the shooting happened shortly after Dhillon released his music video featuring Salman Khan. Titled Old Money, the video, launched in early August, pays homage to 90s Indian action films.
