As superstar Salman Khan was today granted bail by a district and sessions court in Jodhpur in the 1998 black buck poaching case in which he has been sentenced to five years in jail, his friends and well-wishers from film industry expressed their happiness over the decision.

District and Sessions Judge Ravindra Kumar Joshi allowed Salman's plea for bail and suspension of sentence so that he can file an appeal against his conviction and sentencing.

Director of Salman's upcoming film "Race 3" Remo D'Souza told PTI, "I am happy that he has got bail. After working with him so closely I have become a huge fan of him not only as an actor but also as a human being. Almost 90 percent of the shoot for 'Race 3' is over and the remaining portions will mostly be shot in India."
"For us Salman coming of this was more important. Our prayers have been answered. The shooting of 'Race 3' is almost over, a romantic song is left, which will feature Salman and Jacqueline."
Salman's "Dabangg" co-actor Sonu Sood tweeted, "A Good deed is the best Prayer. Welcome brother Salman Khan ."
Singer Adnan Sami, who composed the music of Salman's "Lucky: No Time for Love" said, "So happy for the bail of my dear brother Salman Khan . Relieved. Come home. JAI HO!"
