I do feel sorry for the victim and his family and did not say that there should be no punishment. However I feel it should not be maximum. — Farah Khan (@FarahKhanAli) May 6, 2015

Salman is genuinely a very good human being and he made a mistake. He did not intentionally want to kill someone & now he has to pay a price — Farah Khan (@FarahKhanAli) May 6, 2015

But to put him away for a very long time is not something I would want to happen to him bec he is responsible for the livelihood of so many — Farah Khan (@FarahKhanAli) May 6, 2015

The govt should be responsible for housing ppl.If no 1was sleeping on d road in any other country Salman wuld not have driven over anybody. — Farah Khan (@FarahKhanAli) May 6, 2015

It's like penalising a train driver because someone decided to cross the tracks and got killed in the bargain. #salmankhancase
