Either he is pronounced innocent or the least punishment is given,' said the trade analyst Komal Nahata.His two upcoming films, "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" which stars Kareena Kapoor and "Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo" opposite Sonam Kapoor, are currently in the last "schedule" of shooting.The 49-year-old actor recently shot for 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' in Kashmir. Amod Mehra, another trade analyst, said Salman had committed to do four others films, including 'Dabang 3' and 'Entry Mein No Entry', but these were only at the stage of announcement.
