Noida-based producer Amit Jani has announced a web-series based on gangster Lawrence Bishnoi's life. As per the exclusive sources of India Today.in, the filmmaker has titled the series Lawrence - A Gangster Story. The series has also obtained approval from the Indian Motion Pictures Association and will be made under Amit's home banner, Fire Fox Film Production.

The source told us that Amit Jani has planned to reveal more information, including the cast names, after Diwali. The poster will also be unveiled once the festivities are over. Fire Fox Productions is also working on A Tailor Murder Story, based on the killing of tailor Kanhaiya Lal Sahu in Udaipur, Rajastan, and Karachi to Noida, which is based on the story of Pakistani national Seema Haider and Indian resident Sachin.

Bishnoi, who is currently in custody at Sabarmati Central Jail in Punjab, is known for sending death threats to Salman Khan in the Blackbuck case. The gangster also took responsibility for killing politician and Salman's close friend, Baba Siddique, in Mumbai, last Saturday, October 12.

On Friday, October 18, another death threat was issued to Salman from the Bishnoi gang members. A message was sent to the Mumbai Traffic Police, demanding Rs 5 crore from the actor to settle his long-standing feud with the gangster. The message read, "If Salman Khan wants to stay alive and wants to end the enmity with Lawrence Bishnoi, then he will have to pay Rs 5 crore. Do not take this lightly, otherwise Salman Khan's condition will be worse than Baba Siddique (sic)."

Salman, meanwhile, is shooting for the Bigg Boss 18 Weekend Ka Vaar episodes at Filmcity in Mumbai.
