From the action-packed Karan Arjun to heartwarming dramas like Maine Pyar Kiya that showcase his versatility and mass appeal, here we have listed these six critically acclaimed movies on OTTplay Premium that are perfect for fans to celebrate the icon's journey in Bollywood.
Salman Khan delivers his career-defining role in this intense melodrama as an anti-hero, Radhe Mohan. The action hero brilliantly portrays a man's vulnerability and emotional distress, which is rarely seen in his movies. Khan embodied the transformation from a rowdy college student to a tormented lover, earning applause for his raw and emotional outbursts. Even his romance with Bhumi Pednekar was much talked about.
This movie showcases the soft and lover boy side of Salman Khan, who is widely known as an action star. His combination with Bhagyashree defines Bollywood's dreamy romance. Maine Pyar Kiya captured an innocent young love story, a refreshing change from more intense melodramas, making the lead pair's journey feel authentic and relatable, and made the duo an iconic on-screen couple.
When Salman Khan stars in a pure comedy film, it becomes a must-watch! The movie brings absurd humour, remarkable dialogue, and a comical style that was ahead of its time. Its enduring popularity grew over the years through repeated viewing on television, cementing its status as one of Bollywood's classic comedies. The contrasting combination of Salman Khan and Aamir Khan in this movie created an unforgettable chemistry.
Salman Khan brought his charming and playful demeanour in this romance drama. He conveyed genuine emotions, from playful teasing to deep devotion, that resonated with viewers. His on-screen chemistry with Madhuri Dixit went viral instantly. Hum Aapke Hai Koun...! redefined family drama, wholly focusing on emotions, Indian weddings, soulful music, lack of villains, and celebration of bonds.
Although this musical drama mainly focuses on Manisha Koirala's intense journey to fulfil her dream of becoming a successful musician, Salman Khan's role as her love interest also caught attention. The most significant aspect of Khamoshi is its soulful soundtrack that defines the poignant love story. The movie explored themes of love, sacrifice and self-expression through Annie and her relationship with her deaf and mute parents, who are unable to cherish their daughter's melodious voice.
Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan created history with their collaboration in this action entertainer. The duo's combination is still considered one of the best in Bollywood to date. Karan Arjun blends reincarnation, divine revenge, and a mother's faith. This type of storyline became quite popular back in the 1990s. It was the first major movie in Bollywood that featured SRK and Salman Khan as brothers, creating immense hype.
