"I Will Kill Your Family", Bollywood Singer Udit Narayan Receives Death Threats

Veteran popular Bollywood playback singer Udit Narayan recently grabbed the headlines after he lodged a police complaint last week after receiving repeated death threats for quite some time.

The 63-years-old singer filed a complaint against the secret caller at Amboli Police Station in Mumbai, following which patrolling has been increased near his residence.

Pehla Nasha singer Udit Narayan in a recent conversation opened up about the conversation he had to hear over the abusive and threatening phone calls. He said in a statement, “On April 6, 2019, I got a call from an unknown number at 6.59 am.

The man said, ‘Tumhare Poore parivaar ko khatam kar doonga.’ I panicked. After looking up the number, the name appeared as Maucha. Post that, I kept trying that number several times, but it was either unavailable or switched off. I never got a call from the same number again, but a couple of other phone calls disturbed me,” Bombay Times quoted the singer as saying.

Udit Narayan further shared that being troubled, he asked his manager to register a police complaint, adding, "But Abhi tak Kuch pata nahin chal paaya hai." He went on to reveal that he received the second call more recently, on July 17, at the time he was shooting for Superstar Singer with Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu.

He went on to reveal that he was getting ready for the shoot in his vanity van when he received the call from an unknown number. He answered, but there was silence on the other side so he prompted the person to say something. The person then used cuss words and said, ‘Extortion money chahiye. Main Ravi Pujari (gangster) hoon.’

He shared that since Ravi Pujari is in jail, he felt it was fake. He revealed he got upset right before the shoot began and that also went on to stay with him throughout the shoot.

A man named Hussain Ali, who the singer has known for a few years now, is the third person to be repeatedly bothering him of late. Talking about him, Udit Narayan said, “He is from Darbhanga (Bihar), and he is an acquaintance. He would call me on and off and I would help him whenever he was in need. His calls became frequent in the last two months. When my manager asked him to stop calling, as that would disturb us, he sent a few threatening texts using inappropriate language.”

"Sirf yeh bura lagta hai ki jab humne kisi ka kuch bigaada nahin, toh Aisa kyun ho Raha hai," he was further quoted as saying, adding that he didn’t share anything about the threatening calls with his family, as he didn’t want them to be worried.
