Rajasthan High Court, which overturned previous verdicts that sentenced the 50-year-old star to jail, said: "There is no evidence that the protected animals found dead were killed by Mr Khan's licensed gun"
Salman Khan was acquitted by the Bombay High Court of all the charges in the 2002 hit and run case on December 10. "I am happy for him. I don't think one needs to talk too much about the verdict and the legal situation. As an individual and a friend, I am happy for him. I am sure he is relieved," said Kabir
"People are saying he has just walked away. He has been in the jail for few days. He has spent over Rs 20-25 crores (on the case). Besides this, what about the tension that he and everyone went through all this time?" Salim Khan said
Salman, 49 going on 50, tweeted a shout out to the Rohit Shetty-directed film and attached a preview video from Dilwale in a separate post. The actor had this to say about Dilwale: SRK, Kajol, Varun, Kriti. Directed by Rohit. A film about brothers, love, action, & lots of fun. Has all the elements of a huge grosser.
