New Delhi: Superstar Salman Khan was acquitted from the infamous hit and run case of 2002 a few weeks ago. This came as a relief to him and his family who lived in a nightmare for 13 long years.
His father Salim Khan had said in a statement after the verdict that the family went through immense trouble for all this while. He asserted that it was no picnic and Salman spent around Rs 25 crores on the case.
Now, that the ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan' actor is off the hook, daddy Salim did not forget to thank the ones without whom it would be impossible. Salim raised a toast to thank Salman Khan's lawyers.
When the entire Khan-daan was celebrating the birthday of their youngest son, Sohail Khan at a SoBo restaurant, Salim Khan did not forget to invite the lawyers. He wholeheartedly thanked the eight lawyers involved in the case amid the presence of close friends and relatives.
According to the media reports, after Salim Khan's heartfelt speech, Salman Khan also thanked them for their work.
Though, Salman Khan has been freed from charges by the Bombay high court, the Maharshtra government has decided to challenge HC's verdict in the Supreme Court.
Till this doesn't happen, Salman Khan has a lot to thank for this year. Both his movies, ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan' and ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo' did remarkable business at the box office, making him the only actor whose movies earned Rs 500 crore in a single year.
