As for now, Salman has been sentenced 5 years of Jail imprisonment and has spent 2 nights in Jail. While the delay in his bail hearing has confused us all; many fans and well-wishers of the actor anticipate the judgment to be in the favour of Salman.

Earlier, Varun Dhawan who is known to be close to Salman also expressed his opinion on this issue. He had expressed, "I know for a fact that Salman bhai and his family have the utmost respect and faith in our judiciary system. @BeingSalmanKhan is one of the strongest and most genuine people I know and I'm sure he will come out of this stronger."
