What happened after the snake bite?

Salim Khan also revealed that the staff at the farmhouse often gets bitten by snake from nearby jungle areas but are majorly non poisonous. Talking about the time Salman got bitten, Salim Khan further revealed that the staff came racing and caught the reptile in question. "But I have always told them not to kill the non-poisonous snakes.
