Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor is back on twitter just a day after quiting the micro-blogging site due to courting controversy with his tweets on singer Abhijeet and actor Ajaz Khan in connection to Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's conviction.

The 62-year-old actor had terminated his account as he felt despite being a senior, he was subjected to "too much negativity, abusive language and disregard".

In his comeback tweet today, Kapoor welcomed the Bombay High Court's decision to suspend the five-year sentence to Salman in the 2002 hit-and-run case.

Later, he said filmmaker Sajid Khan was responsible for his return to twitter.
 

"Sajid. You are responsible for my coming back. Tweeple. If I do anything wrong lynch this man Sajid. Thank you Twitter for welcoming me. Touched," Kapoor posted.
