Only a month ago, Salman was convicted by the Jodhpur central jail for allegedly shooting and killing blackbucks in Kankani village near Jodhpur on the night of October 1, 1998, during the filming of his film 'Hum Saath Saath Hain'. 


The actor was sentenced to five years of imprisonment. However, the court acquitted other actors and Salman's 'Hum Sath Sath Hai' co-stars Saif Ali Khan, Tabu, Neelam and Sonali Bendre in the case. A fifth person, Dushyant Singh, a local from the area, was also acquitted. 


After spending two nights in jail, the 53-year-old actor was granted bail by the court. The court, however, had said that the actor would need its permission if he wants to travel abroad while out on bail.
