  • Salman Khan 'Depressed' After Conviction, Broke Down In Jail Cell: Report
Salman Khan hasn't been taking his incarceration in Jodhpur well. According to sources, the star is depressed and even skipped his dinner. Says a source, "First, Salman's medical examination was done. 
 
 
While his blood pressure was normal, his mental state was disturbed. He is lodged in the cell next to Asaram Bapu. Once inside, he couldn't control himself and broke down.
 
The source adds, "He wasn't expecting anything like this at all, and it has been a huge shock. Salman has been kept away from the other prisoners, as the authorities don't want any untoward incident to happen. In Jodhpur, hironon (deers) ko devta maana jata hai."
 
 
"Dinner, which consists of daal and roti, had been served to him but he did not touch it. He seems to be depressed and lost in thought. One assumes that he will be shattered if he doesn't get bail tomorrow," he added.
 
 
Salman Khan shot and killed the blackbucks, from the antelope family, in Kankani village near Jodhpur on the night of October 1, 1998 during the shooting of the film "Hum Saath Saath Hain". Blackbuck is an endangered animal and included in the schedule-I of the Wildlife (Protection) Act-1972.
 
 
All the actors were in a Gypsy that night with Salman in the driving seat. He spotted a herd of blackbucks and killed two of them, prosecution lawyer Mahipal Bishnoi said.
