Yesterday, filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma shared a snake cartoon, took a dig at Salman Khan, and linked the snake bite incident with the infamous hit-and-run case. RGV shared the cartoon on his social media page; the cartoon is of a green-coloured snake standing at the court dock where the accused stands during the trial. The poster reads this is the same snake that has bitten Salman. “It wasn’t me,…it was my driver,” the cartoon snake says.

The poster indicates Salman Khan's hit-and-run case in which the actor’s LandCruiser was involved in an accident. On September 27, 2002, this incident happened where one person died, and several were injured. Salman was allegedly accused of drunk and driving. Later he was sentenced to five years in jail by a trial court in May 2015.

In December 2015, Salman had clarified in the Bombay High court that his driver Ashok Singh was driving, and the court acquitted the Bharat actor and overturned the trial court order.
