Salman Khan is one of the most loved Bollywood actors with many superhit blockbusters. Here are the actor's top 7 movies, one must-watch at least once!
Khan’s first release as a leading man remains among his very best. “Maine Pyar Kiya” doubles as both a love story and a family drama. The story revolves around the romance between Prem and Suman, whose relationship is threatened by a feud between their parents.
The world first noticed Khan’s penchant for comedy with this screwball comedy. Teaming up with Aamir Khan, the duo plays a pair of slackers attempting to marry an heiress. Unfortunately, they end up way over their heads after realizing an evil gangster has the same plans.
Soon after “Andaz Apna Apna,” another major Khan pairing arrived – this time with Salman and Shah Rukh Khan. The two appear as the titular characters, who are brothers out for vengeance.
Following the life of Aishwarya Rai’s Nandini, the story is split in two. The first centers around Nandini and Sameer’s romance, which is cut short by objections from her family.
In this romantic tragedy, Khan plays Radhe Mohan, a thug who turns over a new leaf after falling in love with Nirjara. “Tere Naam” sparked a return for Khan in a genuinely dramatic role.
Dabangg makes full use of Khan’s macho persona, even parodying this to ridiculous lengths. The actor plays Chulbul Pandey, a cop dealing with a number of mishaps that eventually threaten his family.
The “Tiger” movies feature the hero as a conflicted RAW agent who falls for an ISI spy. Instead of following the template of a standard political thriller, these films place the characters’ relationship as the main hook.
Although the actor has starred in several tearjerkers, “Bajrangi Bhaijaan” is arguably the most effective. In this epic drama, Khan stars as Pawan, a devout Indian Hindu who stumbles across a mute Pakistani Muslim girl he names Munni.
Khan’s critical peak in the 2010s continued with this sports drama that details the titular character’s struggles with success. Sultan’s rise as a pehlwani wrestler takes a sharp decline after a deep personal loss destroys his life.
