Salman Khan: 2012's biggest blockbuster was spy movie Ek Tha Tiger, co-starring Katrina Kaif. Salman's fourth-in-row film to fetch Rs 100 crores and above, Ek Tha Tiger made its star the top man of Bollywood's top men. But Salman made headlines off-screen too, with the decades old cases against him coming back to haunt him. The 2002 hit-and-run case kept the actor in and out of courts and very much in the news, with allegations levelled against Mumbai police of having faked evidence to cover up for him. More recently, the Jodhpur Court summoned him to appear before it on February 4, 2013 in connection with the chinkara poaching case which dates back to 1998 and for which he was sentenced to a year's imprisonment. And 2012 is not over yet for Salman. With the much-hyped Dabangg 2 set for release on December 21, and his stint as a host on the show Bigg Boss 6 earning him rave reviews, Salman Khan is likely to end the year with a bang as well.
