‘They thought I was close to Salman Khan’: Gippy Grewal recalls firing incident in Canada

The singer-actor further added, “They said, ‘Gippy is very close to Salman Khan. So, we don’t have any problem with Gippy. He knows that we have a problem with Salman Khan’. But genuinely, I went on Salman’s show 2-3 times to promote my projects, but I never even had a friendly relationship with him.”

Gippy also revealed that the gang’s statement had a stern warning that celebrities from Punjab shouldn’t be close to Salman Khan, otherwise they would have the same fate. “Maybe they felt that we are close, and that’s why it happened. After that, they put out a statement that this was a warning, and if Gippy or any other celebrity from Punjab associates with Salman, they would do the same again. After me, AP Dhillon, because he did a song with Salman, the same happened with him as well,” he said.
