The Judwaa 2 actor, who was in Delhi to promote his upcoming film October, tweeted, "I know for a fact that Salman bhai and his family have the utmost respect and faith in our judiciary system. Salman Khan is one of the strongest and most genuine people I know and I'm sure he will come out of this stronger."

Over the years, Salman Khan and Varun's father, director David Dhawan, have worked on several hit comedy films like the original version of Judwaa, Dulhan Hum Le Jaayenge, Chal Mere Bhai, Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya, Partner, and others. Salman has reportedly played the role of a mentor for Dhawan lad.

Following the conviction, a host of industry friends dropped at the superstar's residence to meet his family.

Family members including brother Sohail and Arbaaz, brother in law Aayush Sharma were at Salman's Galaxy Apartment in suburban Bandra.

Soon after the judgment was announced Congress leader Baba Siddiqui rushed to the actor's house.

Arbaaz's ex-wife Malaika and her sister Amrita Arora, Race 3 producer Ramesh Taurani, Sonakshi Sinha, along with her parents Shatrughan and Poonam Sinha, Sneha Ullal and Daisy Shah were seen visiting his residence.

Sonakshi, Sneha and Daisy were launched in Bollywood as actors by Salman.

Filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala, who is a close friend of the 52-year-old actor, cancelled the success party of his latest release, Baaghi 2, and left for Jodhpur.

After the verdict, fans had gathered outside the Sultan actor's house. Police constables were also stationed outside the building.
