B Praak is associated with Punjabi and Hindi music industries. He started his career as a music producer and later debuted as a singer with the song “Mann Bharrya”
An alleged member of the dreaded Lawrence Bishnoi gang has demanded Rs 10 crore from singer and music composer B Praak, and threatened to “bury him” if he does not pay the money in a week, according to Mohali police.
The threat message was received on Punjabi singer and B Praak’s friend Dilnoor’s phone. Dilnoor then lodged a complaint with the Mohali Senior Superintendent of Police.
In his complaint, Dilnoor said he received two missed calls from an international number on January 5. He again received a call on January 6, but disconnected it. Later, he received a voice message.
“This is Arzoo Bishnoi speaking. Convey a message to B Praak that we want Rs 10 crore.
“You have one week. No matter which country you go to, if anyone associated with him is found, we will cause harm. Do not take it as a fake call. If (he) cooperates, it is fine; otherwise, tell him we will bury him in dirt,” the caller said in the unverified audio message.
Based on Dilnoor’s complaint, an FIR has been registered under sections 308 (4) (extortion) and 351 (3) (criminal intimidation) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita at Sohana police station, police said.
They said the matter is under investigation.

In 2009, Salman Khan spoke about the incident and said he only fed the blackbuck. “I think this is where it has come from. One day after pack-up, we would driving by, all of us, there was Saif, there was Tabu, there was Neelam, there was Amrita, there was Sonali, and we saw a deer fawn stuck in a bush,” Salman told NDTV.
Salman Khan had been issued a fresh death threat, allegedly by Bishnoi gang, where Rs 5 crore has been demanded from the Bollywood actor to “end the enmity” with gangster Lawrence Bishnoi or face a “condition worse that of former Maharashtra minister and NCP leader Baba Siddique’s.” This was in October 2024.
