Security arrangements outside the celebrity couple’s residence have been increased after a threatening message raised safety concerns. Authorities are looking into the matter as a precautionary step.

Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone have increased security at their Mumbai home after Ranveer reportedly received a threatening WhatsApp voice note. The couple acted quickly to ensure their safety, and authorities are investigating the matter to identify the sender of the threat.

What has sparked the security measures?

The alert began after Ranveer allegedly received a voice message demanding a large sum of money. Taking the threat seriously, he informed the Mumbai Police, who immediately began working to trace the source. Following this, the couple deployed additional armed security personnel around their residence to prevent any possible danger.
