Salman Khan Sentenced to 5 Years in Prison in 2002 Hit-and-Run Case, Gets Bail Till Friday

A law is a law. This is unfortunate. Salman's family are law-abiding citizens and they have already undergone 13 years of mental torture. His philanthropic work is well known and he is known to help the needy people

Hema Malini, Actor-Politician

I can only respond emotionally just now... my thoughts and prayers are with Salman and his family today.... I wish them strength.

Karan Johar, Filmmaker

Salman is a man who has always helped d under-privileged! A man who has done so much humanitarian work. Prayers for a fair judgement.

Bipasha Basu, Actor

It hurts when your own are punished, even if they are in the wrong. We love you and are standing by you.

Alia Bhatt, Actor

This is a very sad moment. I am shocked at the verdict. Salman bhai is a simple and real man. I hope he will take it in the right spirit. It was an accident which can happen with anyone on an unfortunate day. Salman's name has made this case popular. He paid the price of being a celebrity.

Wajid Ali, Music Composer

I have empathy for whoever lost his life in this incident and respect the judiciary, but the verdict will impact not only me, but whoever who knows Salman.

Raj Babbar, Actor-Politician

India's judiciary may have spoken, but for those of us whose lives Salman Khan has touched so deeply, his sentence is a major setback.

Milind Deora, Congress Leader
