Veteran Bollywood actor Mithun Chakraborty has been threatened by Pakistani gangster Shahzad Bhatti. This threat has been given to the actor after his alleged controversial statement. Shahzad has also advised the actor to apologise and this threat has been given from Dubai.

Dada Saheb Phalke Award winner Mithun Chakraborty allegedly gave a controversial speech during a party event in North 24 Parganas district last month. After this an FIR was registered against him. This speech was given during a BJP event on October 27. Now, a Pakistani gangster Shahzad Bhatti has threatened Mithun Chakraborty.

Gangster Shahzad Bhatti has advised the actor to apologise within 10 to 15 days and also threatened that if the actor does not do so, he may have to face consequences. Shahzad said, "Mithun sahab, I have an advice for you. You should issue a video and apologise within 10-15 days. It will be better for you, because you have hurt us. People of other religions also love you as much as Muslims have respected you." Shahzad Bhatti also commented on the actor's age and said, "If you don't apologise, you may regret it." Shahzad Bhatti is also said to be related to gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, who is currently in controversy. After receiving this threat against Mithun Chakraborty from Pakistan, the matter has become even more serious. Questions are also being raised about the actor's safety. Meanwhile, Mithun Chakraborty has not yet given any public response to this threat.
