Salman Khan pleaded “not guilty” on Wednesday (April 29) in an arms case being heard at the Jodhpur court.

Before recording Salman’s statement, Chief Judicial Magistrate Anupama Bijlani asked him his name, father’s name, profession and other details to mention in the court’s form.

Salman answered everything, but he got confused when the court asked about his caste.

He gave a puzzled look to the court as well to his counsel and bodyguard and after few seconds someone from the crowd suggested he say “Muslim”. But he said to the court “Hindu and Muslim” both.

Salman told the court that his father is a Muslim and mother is a Hindu.
