Sources informed that the caller was demanding Rs 9 million from the cricketer and warned of leaking his ‘private video’ in case of non-payment.

He clarified in advance that any video released implying himself would be ‘completely fake’

It is learnt that the person could not be traced as yet. While Khan has also not registered complaint with the law enforcers, instead he posted a message on social media.
