Salman Khan was just convicted of "culpable homicide not amounting to murder" for the 2002 hit-and-run, and the Indian Twitteratti lost their collective minds.
1. Here are some of the most hilarious responses:
#SalmanVerdict Salman Khan should now appeal to Arnab Goswami to cut short his sentence.
2.
My FAV piece of journalism about #SalmanVerdict has to include how he was dressed in a white shirt and blue denims.
3.
Whatever be the verdict, it should be timed in a way that Salman Khan is released on Eid.
4.
I suggest to Salman Khan to leave India forever like MF Hussain Sahab instead to spend many years of his life in Jails.

Presumably his next film post release from prison will be Jail Ho. #SalmanVerdict

Fancy headline idea: "Massively popular man accused of heinous crime committed in 2002 finally convicted, Bhakts go berserk" #SalmanVerdict

Waiting for #SalmanVerdict so I can watch news channels spend the rest of the day discussing Salman-Aishwarya, Salman-Katrina & Salman-Srk.

If SalmanKhan goes to jail, Bajrangi Bhaijaan will do 250cr at the box office. If he doesn't go to jail, it will do 250cr at the box office.

How about making a Desi Shawshank Redemption movie with Salman and Sanjay Dutt filmed entirely in Yerwada Jail? #DabaangIdea #BhaiRoxxx

Sad thing is, Salman Khan fans can't make SRK-Wankhede jokes anymore.

If only KRK were Salman's driver, we all would have defended Salman Khan. #SalmanVerdict

#SalmanVerdict has been a 13-year long movie. Started with action. Ending with emotion. Much drama in-between. And a really long interval.

I had suggested before that as a strategy, Salman Khan's lawyers should have shown the Judge his Tweets and Plead insanity #SalmanVerdict
