Subhash Ghai, who worked with the Bajrangi Bhaijaan actor in Yuvraaj said that he had full confidence in the Judiciary and called Salman the most loved person in the industry. 

I am extremely shocked to hear @BeingSalmanKhan being convicted by session court but also having full trust in indian judiciary which has many other doors to appeal for final justice whatsoever. Since He is most loved person by industry N people for his human reasons too.

Arjun Rampal, Sonam Kapoor and Bobby Deol also responded to the verdict by Jodhpur Court.

The law takes its course. Can’t argue it. But at this point in time I just feel helpless and my heart goes out to @BeingSalmanKhan and his family. Reason, cause the last thing @BeingSalmanKhan is, is a criminal.I feel this is too harsh. I do hope he gets the relief he deserves.
