“This happened last night, around 12:30 am to 1 am. My house is in West Vancouver, the incident took place there. We cannot comprehend what has happened and why it has happened,” he said before adding,“When this incident happened, I was shocked because I have never faced any controversies before. I have no enmity with anyone so I couldn’t even think who could have been behind the attack.”

Speaking further, the singer said that he shares no friendship with Khan, and has only met him twice.Saying that he met Salman during the trailer launch of Maujaan Hi Maujaan, Grewal told the news outlet, “The producer who backed the film (Maujaan Hi Maujaan) invited Salman to the trailer launch. I met him there. Before that, I met him on the sets of Bigg Boss. I have no friendship with Salman Khan and the anger of it is being taken out on me. For me, it is still shocking and I am unable to process what has happened to me.”

It is not known whether Grewal has reported the incident to Canadian police or if cops took cognisance themselves, but such firing and the fearlessness with which criminal gangs are operating in Canada is a point of concern.

Soon after the shocking incident, a post allegedly from Lawrence Bishnoi was shared. The threatening postsaid that the singer's close relationship with Salman Khan was the reason behind the attack.

''Your close connection with Brother Salman will not be able to save you or protect you. It’s time for your brother [Salman] to step up and defend you. This message is also for Salman, who is thinking that Dawood Ibrahim can save you,'' the statement reads.

For the unversed, this is not the first time Lawrence, ajailed gangster,has threatened Salman. Last year, a threat letter was delivered to the actor's father, writer Salim Khan. And, since then numerous threats have been given to the actor. In another death threat from Bishnoi, he said that the only goal of his life is to kill Salman.
