On April 22, 2025, Gambhir received two separate emails containing death threats from the terrorist organization "ISIS Kashmir". Both emails included messages such as "I Kill You".

Gambhir wrote on social media, "Prayers for the families of the deceased. Those responsible will pay the price. India will respond to this attack." This statement followed the Pakistan-based terrorist organization Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) claiming responsibility for the attack.
