Bollywood megastar Salman Khan has been awarded a 5-year jail sentence for killing two blackbucks in October 1998 by a Jodhpur court today. The court, however, acquitted his colleagues, Saif Ali Khan, Tabu, Neelam and Sonali Bendre and a local, Dushyant Singh. Salman himself was sent to the Jodhpur Central Jail. As the sentence exceeds more than three years, Salman will have to appeal in higher court for bail. However, if the sentence had been under 3 years, he would have been given bail. This is his fourth stint in Jodhpur Central Jail, where he earlier spent a total of 18 days in 1998, 2006 and 2007, all for cases related to poaching.
 
With Salman Khan sent to jail from the court premises itself, his fans and Bollywood as a whole are once again worried over future as a lot of money is riding on him. The projects he is currently involved with are reportedly worth over Rs 500 crore and what will happen to them is uncertain. Bollywood is certainly looking at fielding major losses.
