Lawrence Bishnoi’s Growing Infamy

Varma’s tweets came in the wake of the murder of politician Baba Siddique, for which Lawrence Bishnoi claimed responsibility. Bishnoi’s involvement in the crime has only fueled the public curiosity about the gangster, especially given his longstanding feud with Salman Khan. The feud traces back to the late 1990s, when Khan was embroiled in the blackbuck poaching case in Rajasthan. Since then, Bishnoi, whose community considers blackbucks sacred, has issued several threats to the actor.

In another tweet, Ram Gopal Varma highlighted Bishnoi’s current notoriety by pointing out the engagement his posts were receiving. “I have 6.2 MILLION FOLLOWERS and this tweet got 6.2 MILLION VIEWS… This is a TESTIMONY of LAWRENCE BISHNOI’s CURRENT POPULARITY,” he remarked, emphasizing the gangster’s growing interest in the public eye.

In a surprising twist, Varma even commented on Lawrence Bishnoi’s appearance, drawing comparisons to infamous gangsters from the past. Sharing a picture of Bishnoi, he tweeted, “If a film is based on the BIGGEST GANGSTER, no filmmaker will cast a guy who looks like DAWOOD IBRAHIM or CHOTA RAJAN… But here, I don’t know a single FILM STAR who is more GOOD LOOKING than B.”

The Bishnoi-Khan Feud: A Decades-Old Rivalry

The feud between Salman Khan and Lawrence Bishnoi stretches back to the blackbuck poaching case that deeply angered the Bishnoi community. Though Salman Khan served jail time for the incident, the tension between him and Bishnoi has remained ever since, with Bishnoi repeatedly issuing threats to the actor.

The recent murder of Baba Siddique, reportedly orchestrated by Bishnoi, has only heightened the stakes. Siddique was a close family friend of Salman Khan, and his untimely death has left the actor visibly shaken.
