Anil Kapoor: Hope Salman Khan does not have to serve jail term

Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor today hoped his superstar-friend Salman
Khan, charged with culpable homicide not
amounting to murder in the 2002 hit-and-
run case, does not have to serve long years
in jail.

If convicted of culpable homicide, the 47-
year-old star faces up to 10 years in jail. "It
is a court matter so it is not fair to
speculate on things. But I hope nothing like
(10 years in jail) happens.

My heart says nothing will happen," Anil
Kapoor said at an event in Mumbai when asked
to give his reaction on the charges framed
against Salman by a local court earlier in
the day.

Anil Kapoor and Salman have shared
screen space in films like Deewana Mastana, Biwi No.1, No Entry, Salam-E-Ishq,
YuvrajM and Wanted.
