On May 6, 2015, Khan was sentenced to five years in prison for allegedly driving his car under the influence of alcohol and without a license in September 2002 to a group of homeless people in Mumbai who were sleeping on the sidewalk. A man was killed in the process. The judge therefore found Khan guilty of manslaughter in addition to traffic violations. The Bombay High Court in Mumbai granted Khan a two-day reprieve on bail at the defense’s request. On May 8, 2015 Khan was on bail of 30,000 rupees granted another reprieve prison because an appeal was lodged against the judgment.

The Rajasthan High Court charged Khan with poaching in a forest near Jodhpur while filming in 1998. He is said to have shot down Indian gazelles and two of the deer goat antelopes , which are revered by the local Bishnoi group and protected as a threatened species by Indian law . In 2016, he was acquitted of charges related to the incident. On April 5, 2018, Khan was found guilty of poaching in a Jodhpur court and sentenced to five years in prison. He was also fined 10,000 rupees. The defense announced that they would appeal as soon as possible. On April 7, 2018, Khan was temporarily released from prison after having been detained for two days after paying rupees 1,000,000 as security. A court hearing has been scheduled for May 7, 2018 to officially suspend the sentence at Khan's request.
