In the past week alone, several Bollywood celebs have reported extortion threats and targeted attacks. These incidents have revived fears of underworld-style intimidation reminiscent of the 1990s and 2000s.

Actor Ranveer Singh received a ransom threat via a voice note on Tuesday. On Friday, an alleged fresh threat warned of targeting the actor's staff and also named filmmaker Rohit Shetty. This comes on the heels of shots being fired outside Rohit's Mumbai house on Feb 1, after which security was stepped up. A source close to the filmmaker clarifies to us that Rohit's staff has not been threatened in the new voice note.
