Somy Ali Reveals Message to Lawrence Bishnoi: 'initiate peace and dialogue’

Somy Ali Reveals Message to Lawrence Bishno: The Pakistan-american actress Somy Ali opens up about her message to Lawrence Bishnoi. Salman Khan's ex Somy Ali in a recent post invited Lawrence Bishnoi gang leader to a Zoom call but later on deleted that post.

In a recent chat with Hindustan Times, Somy Ali talks about making peace with Lawrence, her new film production business, the womens safety in the entertainment industry, and many other things.

During the interview, when she was asked about her recent post on inviting Lawrence Bishnoi to a Zoom call, she said, “The death threats to Salman were truly concerning, and when I addressed Lawrence Bishnoi, my intention was to encourage peace and dialogue, not fuel animosity. Today's film industry is a completely different landscape compared to the 90s, but safety was always an underlying concern, particularly for women. I never faced direct threats, but there were moments that left me uneasy.”

She further added, “One such moment occurred in March '93, when both Sridevi and I were staying in the SeaRock Hotel in Mumbai, and we were quickly moved out. A week later, the hotel was targeted, which sent a shockwave through me. Moments like these remind us of the fragility of our safety in the industry.”

Earlier, the actor said that she is acting in film produce by Somy Ali Productions rather than releasing new ones. When was asked about if she has any boundaries about the types of roles she would play on TV or in movies, She added, “I’m genuinely excited about Somy Ali Productions, and the ability to use film as a vehicle to tell stories that matter. Beyond giving newcomers a platform, I am drawn to roles highlighting strong, complex characters—especially women, transgender individuals, and LGBTQ+ stories. I’ve also become deeply interested in telling the stories of men who’ve been wrongfully accused. My work with No More Tears has deeply shaped the narratives I want to explore—ones that show survival, resilience, and justice.”

When asked about the claim that women in Bollywood doesn’t support each other, she added, “There’s a slow but positive shift in how women support one another in Bollywood, but it’s still not where it should be. The competitive environment and societal pressures on women to uphold specific images often make it difficult for genuine solidarity to thrive. I supported Kangana, Deepika, and Zeenat because they each demonstrated strength in standing up for what they believed in, even when it wasn’t easy. More unity among women in the industry is crucial if we want lasting change—not just for ourselves but for future generations of actresses and women behind the camera.”
