And what was Nadeem’s part in it, if any?

So this also involves Sonu somehow ??

Not sure but mumbai police had information about it beforehand, but they made a mistake and inform mahesh bhatt regarding it and told him to tell gulshan to not step out of the house but he still did.

The only reason of his murder is, he reached great heights of success.

Also he was promoting Hinduism, not tolerable by the underworld.

Gulshan kumar used to sell audio casssetes at cheaper prices than his other counterparts

Maine Pyaar Kiya Audio was being sold for only 20 rupees as tseries label whereas original rights were with HMV the audio cassette had full songs along with the antakshari

so may be his success was not digested by some in this line

Apparently Dawood Ibrahim's gang of terrorists killed GK after he ignored their extortion threats and stated that he'd rather donate that money to a temple.

Mumbai police had also alleged that Nadeem hatched the conspiracy in Dubai with Anees Ibrahim Kaskar, the brother of Dawood Ibrahim and the latter's associates Salem and Kayyum. Nadeem has been in exile since the murder.

Even Sharavan was interrogated but the police found nothing against him.

Why did DGP Maria inform Mahesh Bhatt in the first place?

He gets a tip about a plan to murder Gulshan outside Shiv Mandir and the first thing he does is to call Bhatt and tell him about it?

It doesn't add up, or maybe the article leaves out some details

“It transpired that a contingent of the UP Police had begun providing security to Gulshan Kumar as he had a cassette factory in Noida. The protection provided by the Mumbai police was, therefore, withdrawn.”

Gulshan lived in Mumbai so shouldn’t Mumbai police give him the protection..

I just read about how it happened in his Wiki page... It’s like a movie scene...

In another article I read that Rakesh Maria contacted Bhatt to confirm if GK indeed visits a temple every morning.
