Salman Khan’s home under surveillance with 24/7 police patrol, AI-enabled CCTV

The security at Bollywood superstar Salman Khan’s Galaxy Apartments in Bandra has been significantly heightened following the recent murder of politician Baba Siddique and threats from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. A heavy police presence has been deployed around the area to prevent any potential threat to the actor, who has been targeted by the gang in the past.
Over 60 plain-clothed policemen have been stationed around Bandstand and near Galaxy Apartments, working 24/7 to monitor suspicious activity. These officers, adhering to a standard operating procedure (SOP), maintain constant vigilance over every movement in the vicinity.
In addition to personnel, the Mumbai Police have installed AI-enabled high-resolution CCTV cameras equipped with facial recognition technology. These cameras can detect individuals who pass by multiple times, raising an alert if the same face is captured more than three times, suggesting potential reconnaissance. A dedicated command centre monitors the area around the clock.
The police deployment comes after a previous incident in April, when shooters linked to the Bishnoi gang carried out an attack outside Khan’s residence, despite existing security cover.
The scene around Galaxy Apartments now resembles a police barrack, with security checkpoints at multiple locations and officers posted at strategic points. An estimated 60 uniformed policemen, including female officers, are stationed outside the building, with police vans and jeeps reporting to Bandra Police and the Protection Branch.
Visitors to the building are thoroughly screened, with all identities recorded and checked before entry. No unauthorised individuals or fans are allowed to gather outside the apartment.

Salman Khan’s Y-plus security cover includes a team of eight to ten armed policemen, some of whom travel with him. His movements are coordinated with local police stations, which secure the area before his arrival.
Adjacent to Salman’s building is the bungalow of actress Waheeda Rehman, while a Parsi colony lies to the left—both secured premises. In front of the building is the amphitheatre, followed by the sea.
Behind the ten-foot boundary wall at the rear is an apartment building, which is also monitored by plainclothes policemen. Additionally, police personnel are stationed along the boundary wall.
Salman Khan resides with his family at Galaxy Apartments, located in Mumbai’s Bandra. Having lived there since his childhood, Salman primarily stays on the first floor along with his parents, Salma and Salim Khan. He also owns a flat on the ground floor of the building. The apartment is modestly designed, reflecting a simple and minimalistic style.
Galaxy Apartments has eight floors, with the first-floor apartment featuring a well-known parapet window balcony. This balcony is where Salman greets his fans during special occasions like Eid, though it remains mostly covered with blinds since the April attack. The first floor also houses a bar area for entertaining guests, and the walls are adorned with Salman’s artwork.
Both floors have kitchens, and the home has ample space to accommodate visitors. In the past, Salman hosted Ganpati celebrations at Galaxy Apartments before his sister, Arpita, took over the tradition after her marriage and moved to Worli.
Security at Salman Khan’s farmhouse in Panvel has also been intensified. Police have set up blockades on the approach road, and visitors are stopped and cleared only after confirmation from his staff. CCTV surveillance and regular patrols further secure the area.
Speaking on the condition of anonymity, cops told India Today TV that the other residents of the building are irritated and sometimes furious due to the regular security checks. Even their guests have sometimes complained when they are frisked or questioned while visiting them.
Apart from that, there are two shops on the ground floor below Salman’s flat, and they are also frustrated with the heightened security, cops said.
As per sources, Salman Khan has no plans to move out of his long-time home to his Panvel farmhouse.
