Bollywood star Salman Khan on Wednesday participated in Green India Challenge here by planting a sapling and urged all his fans to plant trees to protect the environment.

Salman planted a sapling at Ramoji Film City where he was shooting for his upcoming movie “Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali”.

He was accompanied by Rajya Sabha MP and Green India Founder J Santosh Kumar and his film crew.

The actor appreciated the mission taken up by the MP. “Planting trees is a very good thing. I don’t know why people take interest in cutting trees. It is said that when a man stops growing, you should plant a tree. Tree is a still man and a man is a walking tree. This bond is very important,” Salman said.

Underlining the importance of plantation, he said “wherever you have trees, you will have water”.

Salman said that every person should take the responsibility of the plantation programme and also take adequate care of the saplings until they grow big trees. It is unfortunate that human loss due to natural calamities, heavy rains and floods is immense, he said, adding that the only solution to check human loss is promoting massive plantations.

Santosh Kumar thanked the Bollywood star for accepting his request and joining the Green India Challenge. He said that Salman’s initiative to plant saplings will definitely inspire crores of his fans.

Bollywood Superstar Salman Khan has been receiving death threats and the security for the actor is beefed up. The actor is shooting for his next film in Hyderabad currently. In a shocking update, an attempt was made to kill Salman Khan outside his residence long ago but the plan was canceled at the last minute. Salman Khan was on his way for cycling and a sharpshooter was ready with a weapon in a modified hockey casing. The assassination plan was canceled in the last minute and this is revealed during the investigation of Sidhu Moose Wala’s murder case.

The close associates of Lawrence Bishnoi are nabbed and the probe in the murder case of Sidhu Moose Wala is on. The aides of Lawrence Bishnoi conducted a recce outside the residence of Salman Khan. The actor was not accompanied by guards when he steps out for cycling. It was then the assassination plan was chalked out. When the sharpshooter was about to execute the plan, an escort vehicle of the Mumbai cops was at the residence of Salman Khan and the plan was called off. They feared that they would be caught by the cops and canceled the plan.

Bollywood Superstar Salman Khan received a death threat after the assassination of Punjabi pop singer Sidhu Moose Wala. The security of Salman Khan was beefed up and a threat letter was sent to Salman Khan and his father Salim Khan. The Mumbai cops got alerted and they visited the residence of Salman Khan.

Punjabi pop singer Sidhu Moose Wala was brutally shot in Punjab a couple of days ago. Gangster Lawrence Bishoi was named as the prime suspect in the case. Days after the incident, the security for Bollywood Superstar Salman Khan has been beefed up. The cops are deployed around his apartment. Lawrence Bishnoi had plans to assassinate Salman Khan over the blackbuck poaching case as they are considered as sacred creatures for the community of Bishnois. Lawrence announced that he would kill Salman Khan in 2018 outside a court in Jodhpur.

In 20220, Salman Khan’s assassination plans are exposed after the arrest of Sunni, a close associate of Lawrence Bishnoi. After the assassination of Sidhu Moose Wala, the Mumbai cops are alerted and beefed up the security of Salman Khan. The top actor is currently shooting for his next film Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali and the recent schedule of the film is wrapped up in Mumbai.

In a mega jolt on the eve of Ramzan Eid, Bollywood megastar Salman Khan has been slapped with a legal notice — demanding a staggering Rs 295 crore as ‘costs in cause — by his neighbour Ketan R. Kakkad, a retired NRI from the USA.

According to sources, the notice has been sent by Kakkad through the actor’s team, DSK Legal – among the top-notch law firms in the country, with a week’s time to comply.

“It is over a week now but there has been no response from them. We shall pursue the matter till its logical end as per the honourable court verdict,” a grim Kakkad confirmed, when queried by IANS.

The development came soon after the Bombay City Civil Court Judge A. H. Laddhad’s order in a notice of motion for interim reliefs, arising in a defamation suit filed by Khan against Kakkad.

In the March 23 order, Judge Laddhad had virtually rejected all contentions in Khan’s plea for an interim ‘gag order’ against Kakkad, and awarded the latter ‘costs in cause’ while disposing off the matter, spelling a setback for the actor.

Besides Kakkad, his next door neighbour at the Panvel (Raigad) farmhouse, Khan had dragged social media giants like Google, YouTube, FaceBook, Twitter, Sandeep Phogat, Paras Bhat and Ujjwal Narain, as parties, and it became one of the most avidly followed cases this year.

Among other things, the plaintiff (Khan) sought directions for a comprehensive order restraining the defendants (Kakkad, et al) from defaming the actor and his Panvel farmhouse on all public domains and social media platforms.

After several days of heated arguments on both sides — with strong counters to DSK Legal battery by Kakkad’s formidable team comprising Y.P. Singh, Abha Singh and Aditya Pratap — Judge Laddhad ruled in favour of the defendants, stunning the plaintiffs.

In the demand for Rs 295 crore ‘costs in cause’, Kakkad has recounted how he and his wife Anita Kakkad, a senior citizen NRI couple from the US, were systematically harassed, tortured, prevented from entering their plot of land adjoining Khan’s sprawling Arpita Farms in Raigad for the past many years.

“On the other side, Salman Khan is a very wealthy, world-famous and politically extremely powerful personality, who – through his team – spared no efforts to bring us to the knees. All with the final aim to somehow illegally grab our plots of land in Raigad and drive us out of India forever,” Kakkad pointed out.

However, Kakkad said it was only due to the ‘blessings’ of the tiny eco-friendly Lord Ganesha Temple on his plot that they survived and “achieved an unparalleled legal victory” in March, proving more than a match for the “Dabangg” superstar.

Justifying the demand towards his ‘costs in cause’, Kakkad claimed that as per US standards in similar litigation, “Rs 295 crore is peanuts”, and nothing for a person of the stature of the ‘ill-advised Khan’.

The amount would barely cover the lawyers’ fees, compensation to scores of online experts and foot-soldiers, advisors in various fields and also his wife, all of whom toiled 24×7 to conduct research, collect background material, documents, evidence, etc, compile and tabulate it properly for the court’s benefit, he said.

“However, if the opposite side dilly-dallies and does not clear our ‘costs in cause’ within a reasonable time, we have kept all our options open, including moving the US courts for redressal as Khan side has defamed us globally through such false and mischievous litigation, plus serve as an example to others,” warned Kakkad.
