A star's power can be assessed by his fan-following. And on that basis there is no bigger star in India than Salman Khan as it was evident in the court on Tuesday.
It was an unusual sight on Tuesday in Mumbai Sessions Court, not because hundreds of fans gathered there to catch a glimpse of Salman Khan. It was also not because there were an equal number of mediapersons waiting for a byte from the actor. It was unusual because the policemen present there were seen clicking pictures with the star.
Yes! such is Salman's star power that cops present in the court premises to manage the crowd could not stop themselves from taking pictures with the star before he got into his car to leave for home at the end of the day.
The agitated media photographers told the cops, "Why aren't you letting us click pictures when you yourself were asking the star to pose for photographs with you?"
Earlier in the day, the police had a tough time keeping eager-beaver fans and the media in control. Equipment of a few photographers was damaged in the jostling and pushing. In fact, it was strange to find the cops shielding his car and preventing the shutterbugs from clicking the superstar. A scuffle ensued between the cops and the photographers soon.
Salman Khan is accused of running down a group of people sleeping on a pavement in Bandra in 2002, in which one person was killed. He has been charged with culpable homicide not amounting to murder. Next hearing in the case is on May 19.
