Bollywood has increased security measures, deploying bodyguards and installing bulletproof glass on film sets as fears of underworld threats grow.
Bollywood has stepped up security after a rise in fears of mob violence, with actors and crew now being protected by bodyguards and sets fitted with bulletproof glass.
The trend follows several high‑profile incidents where film personalities were targeted by criminal groups, prompting producers to invest more in safety.
Industry insiders say the move reflects growing underworld influence in the entertainment sector, leading studios to install reinforced glass and other protective measures.
While some critics worry the measures may dampen the creative atmosphere, officials insist that safeguarding talent is paramount and that the shift signals a broader change in risk management practices.
