BBC correspondent in BombayBollywood superstar Adnan says he is haunted by memories of the night his car was involved in an alleged hit-and-run
The actor is facing charges of culpable homicide after one man died and four others were injured when his BMW ran them over in Bombay, also known as Mumbai.
In an exclusive interview with the BBC days after his release from jail, the Bollywood superstar said he had not been able to sleep since the incident.
"Though I was not driving, it was my car which was involved in the accident and that fact will stay with me for the rest of my life," Mr Adnan said. 
Mr Adnan was released on bail of about $500 last Sunday after 17 days in custody.
He models himself on Hollywood star Sylvester Stallone - he even tries to speak with the same kind of drawl and loves to show off his muscular build.
The media, he says, is to blame for his image as a spoilt and arrogant star, who can neither control his drink nor his anger.
"If indeed I was so rich, famous and powerful, how come I ended up in a jail? People with the power of the pen said I should be sent to a mental asylum, that I should be hanged.
Describing his jail term as an "educational" experience which he was "destined" to suffer, Salman Khan said it was ironical that his car - which had never even suffered a scratch - was involved in such a tragic accident
