Salman Khan the “Bad Boy” of Bollywood is a “Good Boy” for producers and the box office. In last two decades Salman gave many good and commercially successful movies. His last hit Dabaang is one of the highest money grosser in Bollywood history. His second(first in a lead role) movie Maine Pyar Kiya was also one of the highest money grosser at that time. I’m listing 12 of his best movies till date. If you like Bollywood movies or Salman Khan or both then you must watch(if you didn’t) all of this movies.

One of the biggest hits of Bollywood – the film was released in 1989. Film was directed by Sooraj R. Barjatya. Bhagyashree played the lead female role opposite Salman. The film is a musical romantic film. After this film the name Prem(Salman in the movie) were used in many films for Salman.

A musical blockbuster in 1989 Saajan was another mile stone for Salman. Salman shared screen with Sanjay Dutt in the movie. Both Aman(Sanjay) and Akash(Salman) love a girl Pooja(Madhuri Dixit) in the movie. This triangle love-story was backed by beautiful songs like Dekha Hai Pehli Baar, Mera Dil Bhi Kitna, Bohat Pyar Karte Hain, Jiye To Jiye Kaise and some more. This song are still popular even after 20 years.

One of the best Indian romantic comedy ever made. Salman Khan and Amir Khan gave excellent performance in the movie. Salman was named “Prem” again in the movie. Prem and Amar(Amir Khan) are two totally useless son from a poor family. They need a easy way to get rich and so they came out with a idea to marry a rich girl and get rich quick.

A family drama that is 206 minutes long created history in the box office in 1994. It was again directed by Sooraj R. Barjatya and Salman played the lead role as “Prem”. Madhuri Dixit.

But the happy romantic situation changes when Prem’s sister in law who is also Nisha’s elder sister died and both of their family wants Nisha to marry Prem’s elder brother. The film is a great family entertainer with (I think) 60 minutes or more filled with nice songs.

I believe if you watch hindi cinema then you already watched this movie. Unfortunately if you didn’t the go and watch it now. A beautiful romantic film directed by Sanjay Leela Banshali brought Salman and Aishwariya together on screen for the first time. The film is full with romance, drama, nice songs as well as Indian culture. Its a must watch movie for hindi movie lovers.

Tere NaamTere Naam (2003)

Possibly the best romantic hindi film with a tragic end. Salman played Radhey who is a leader in local collage and falls in love with an innocent first year student Nirjhara played by Bhoomika Chawla. Radhey became a victim of gang war and looses his memory. Bhoomika Chawla debuted in hindi films in this movie. Songs in this movie are awesome. Tere Naam is still the highest selling music album in Indian history.

A great comedy film directed by David Dhawan. Salman is named “Prem” in this movie again. Govinda was relaunched in this movie after a political break in his career. Salman and Katrina Kaif acted for the first time in the same movie though she played against Govinda and Lara Dutta played against Salman. Bhaskar Diwakar Chaudhry (Govinda) who is a poor guy who loves his boss Priya(Katrina) and he approaches Prem the “Love Guru” to fix his picture in Priya’s heart. Good script and Salman’s presence make the movie fun to watch.

A typical Bollywood action movie where Salman played a role of a undercover police officer who works as a underworld shooter to shoot criminal.

The biggest box office money grosser in hindi film history. The film has nothing new or unique in the story. The same 1980′s masala movie formula distributed in a new package.

Sonakshi Sinha daughter of Satrughna Sinha debuted in this movie against Salman.
