What exactly happened
on the 28th Sept, the fateful night?
Salman - Well I had gone
to the Rain bar where I had a few Bacardis and was on my way home late
night when the Toyota Landcruiser suddenly swerved into the American Express
laundry on Hill Road. Believe me it was so sudden that noone could have
anticipated that something like this will happen. The next thing that I
saw was that a man was dead and a few others were injured. For a few seconds
I was completely numb but then I gathered myself together and got down
to see what had actually happened. I wanted to take the injured to the
hospital but soon there was a crowd and they stared to attack me and started
throwing stones at me. I was hurt at several places all over my body. In
the melee, somebody even snatched my wristwatch and my wallet. A few of
the people around saved me and told me to get out of there.
Who was at the wheel?
Salman - As I have said
earlier that my driver Ashok Singh was driving and I was sitting behind.
But Kamal Khan, who was
with you, has told the police that you were at the wheel. And there are
many eyewitnesses who would vouch for that.
Salman - That is not
true. I was not driving, Ashok was. I don't know what Kamal said and I
don't believe that. Ashok was at the wheel and he was not driving very
fast as some newspapers have reported. Its hard to say what exactly happened
that night, probably the brakes failed but whatever happened I am sorry
for that. That night I cried a lot because I couldn't do anything for the
injured people.
If you felt so bad then
why didn't you do anything for the victims like visit them or give them
financial support.
Salman - As I said I
wanted very much to help the injured but my lawyers advised me against
it because that would have been misconstrued as influencing witnesses.
But then why did you run
away instead of going to the police station?
Salman - I want to make
it clear that I handed myself over to the cops. The cops did not arrest
me as has been reported but I surrendered myself. In fact, between September
28 and October 7, when I was re-arrested, my lawyers advised me to apply
for anticipatory bail. I said 'no' to them. I said let the cops do what
they want. I cooperated fully. If I wanted, I could have saved myself all
the bother by making phone calls to a couple of really influential persons.
I cannot name them, but they are really powerful people. But I did no such
thing.
Did all this happen because
you were depressed about the interview that Aishwarya gave to Bombay Times
in which she talked of the end of her relationship with you.
Salman - No, that interview
didn't affect me. Our relationship was over a year-and-a-half back. So
there was no question of any interview by her affecting me now. So just
stop linking this issue with her.
What was your jail experience
like?
Salman - Well this was
not the first time I was in jail. I have been to jail before but yes I
was definitely strong. I was given a separate jail which was about 8 ft
by 6 ft. I was given a separate blanket. All the inmates were living like
that. In police custody, I had to share the toilet with a large number
of people. I shared my home food with other inmates. I also made friends
with them and infact took it in my stride. I think what happened, happened
for the best because in jail I really got time to think about my life and
I think I need to get it in track. I read the Ramayana and the Mahabharata.
I have no complaints
Finally do you think your
celebrity status has been a handicap?
Salman - Yes, you pay
the price for being a celebrity. Salman Khan is the greatest actor in Bollywood.
But as I said I have no complaints. Maybe I needed this. It has taught
me many lessons in life
