BIOGRAPHY
Few years back, "Peoples" magazine declared him as one of the ten best looking men in the world. But 1998 was also the year this brawny brat flexed his muscles at the Bollywood box office. How? Well, he had three smash hits in a row Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya, Jab Pyaar Kisi Se Hota Hai and Bandhan. Add to this, a dashing guest appearance in the blockbuster, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. In other words, it was the year of reckoning for Salman Khan, who had finally arrived at the pinnacle after being dismissed repeatedly by the trade denizens despite participating in history creating blockbusters over the years.
Salman the eldest son of scriptwriter Salim Khan (of the famous Salim-Javed duo who penned Sholay, Deewar, Zanjeer and many more blockbusters, and created the angry young man icon in Amitabh Bachchan in the 70's) made an inauspicious debut over a decade ago in "Biwi Ho To Aisi". He was ridiculed and made fun of before Sooraj Barjatya's "Maine Pyaar Kiya" turned him into a household name and an heartthrob of millions. Now to think that Sooraj Barjatya was nearly pressurised into dropping Salman from his directorial debut! In fact, even papa Salim confesses that had he been in the young director's place, "I might have been hesitant (to take Salman)." But Sooraj's faith in Salman wasn't shaken and "Maine Pyaar Kiya" turned them both in tinsel town hottest properties. However, despite the film's success, Salman was candid enough to admit that he had made little contribution to the Barjatya blockbuster. In fact, as far as he was concerned, he was just okay giving himself just "three out of ten marks". But that was a pretty good score for somebody who had once upon a time flirted with the dreams of becoming a swimmer or a pilot, and had been dismissed by the film industry. The success of the candy floss love story, was followed by a handful of hits, like "Baaghi", "Sanam Bewafa", "Patthar Ke Phool" and "Saajan". However, the golden run was too good to last. A few bad choices of film roles and his popularity suddenly "nose-dived" in the early 90s, a downward journey that coincided with his unpopularity with a press that found him too intimidating and unapproachable.
And then once again came Sooraj Barjatya to the rescue with "Hum Aapke Hain Kaun". While the movie made box office history, Salman Khan suddenly found a new facet to his acting persona, his flair for seemigly effortless comedy. Though his grim intensity blazed the screen and stole the show in Rakesh Roshan's Karan Arjun, it was his romantic humorous, yet quite sensitive avatar that Bollywood set out to explore. One of the best results of this exploration was Khamoshi, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's directorial debut. The film touched many hearts with its tears-jerking moments underlining the sublime relationship between deaf and dumb parents, played by Nana Patekar and Seema Biswas, and their daughter, portrayed by Manisha Koirala. But the pathos in the film was finely balanced by Salman's breezy presence evoking laughter effortlessly, prompting remarks from industry veterans like Jaya Bachchan, who told a journalist after seeing the film,"Of course, it was Manisha's film but I thought Salman was brilliant". A thought shared by everyone but his hard-nosed detractors within the industry. Critical acclaim and awards don't seem to matter much for this actor with arguably the best physique in Bollywood. In fact, so proud is he of his hard earned body of marathon workouts that Salman leaves no opportunity to display his near-perfect physique on the screen. The best example of course is the song "Oh ho jaane Jaana.. " from "Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya", a film directed by his brother Sohail (and also co-starring his younger brother Arbaaz) which was once again a showcase of his immense comic potential. Some say that he is an actor with severe limitations. But Salman Khan has time and again surprised his critics by often rising above the script and its treatment to give the film in his.

CAREER

Career in 1990s
1990 saw only one film release starring Khan, Baaghi: A Rebel for Love, alongside southern actress Nagma. The film was a box office success and was followed by another successful year in 1991 when he starred in three hit films, Patthar Ke Phool, Sanam Bewafa and Saajan. Despite these early successes, all of his 1992-1993 releases resulted in box office failures. Khan clawed back his previous success in 1994 with his second collaboration with director Sooraj Barjatya in the romance Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, co-starring Madhuri Dixit. This film was the biggest hit of that year, and turned out to be one of Bollywood's highest grossing films ever, becoming the fourth highest earner of all time. Apart from being a commercial success, the film was widely acclaimed and Khan was praised for his performance, earning his second nomination for Best Actor at the Filmfare. Three more films released that year featured Khan, none of which making a significant impact on the box-office as was the case with the previously mentioned title. He did however win praise for his performance in Andaz Apna Apna, alongside co-star Aamir Khan, which has gained a cult status since its release. In 1995 he cemented his success with Rakesh Roshan's blockbuster Karan Arjun, co-starring alongside Shahrukh Khan. The film was the second biggest hit of the year, and his role of Karan once again put his name among the nominees for the Best Actor award at the Filmfare, which was eventually won by his Karan Arjun co-star Shahrukh Khan.
1996 was followed by two successes. The first one being Sanjay Leela Bhansali's directional debut Khamoshi: The Musical, co-starring Manisha Koirala, Nana Patekar and Seema Biswas. Though a box office failure, the film was critically acclaimed. He next starred alongside Sunny Deol and Karisma Kapoor in Raj Kanwar's action hit Jeet. He had only two releases in 1997: Judwaa and Auzaar. The former was a comedy directed by David Dhawan co-starring Karisma Kapoor, where he played a dual role of twins separated at birth. The film was a box office hit. The latter, co-starring Shilpa Shetty failed to do well, but developed a cult following after its video release.
Khan worked in five different films in 1998, his first release being the comedy Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya opposite Kajol, one of the biggest commercial successes of that year. This was followed by the moderately successful drama Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai. Khan played a young man who has to take a child who claims to be his son, under his custody. Khan's performance in the film earned him several positive notices and favourable reviews from critics. He rounded of the year with Karan Johar's directorial debut, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Co-starring alongside Shahrukh Khan and Kajol, he had only an extended cameo playing the role of Aman. However, it eventually turned out beneficial to him, as his performance earned him his second Filmfare Award under the Best Supporting Actor category. In 1999, Khan starred in three hit films: Hum Saath-Saath Hain: We Stand United, which reunited him with Sooraj Barjatya for the third time; Biwi No.1, which became the top grossing film that year; and Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, which was a major critical success, and earned him another Best Actor nomination at the Filmfare.

Career in 2000s
In 2000, Khan acted in six films, most of which failed critically and commercially, except for the two moderately successful films, Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega and Chori Chori Chupke Chupke, both of which co-starred Rani Mukerji and Preity Zinta. His performance in Chori Chori Chupke Chupke, the release of which was delayed until 2001, was received well. The film was one of the first Bollywood movies to handle the issue of surrogate childbirth; Khan played the role of a rich industrialist, who hires a surrogate mother after his wife becomes infertile. Critics noted his turn towards a more serious role, which reportedly had more substance in comparison to his previous roles. In 2002 he starred in the delayed release Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam which was semi-hit at the box office. Khan's following releases failed at the box office until he made a comeback in 2003 with Tere Naam. The film was a major earner and his performance was praised by critics, with film critic Taran Adarsh noting, "Salman Khan is exceptional in a role that fits him to the T. He breathes fire in sequences that demand uneasiness. But beneath the tough exterior lies a vulnerable person and this facet in particular comes to the fore in the latter reels. His emotional outbursts are splendid..." He subsequently continued his success at the box office, with comedies like Mujhse Shaadi Karogi (2004) and No Entry (2005). 2006 was an unsuccessful year for him when Jaan-E-Mann and Baabul both failed to do well at the box office.
Khan started 2007 with the ensemble film Salaam E Ishq which failed to do well at the box office. His next release Partner did very well at the box office, receiving a blockbuster verdict. He next appeared in his first Hollywood movie, Marigold: An Adventure in India opposite American actress Ali Larter. Telling the love story of an Indian man and an American woman, the film was a major failure, both commercially and critically. Khan starred in three films throughout 2008, all of which underperformed, though his second film of the year, Heroes, met with praise from critics. Khan hosted the second season of 10 Ka Dum in year 2009 which turned out to be even more successful than his first season as host of the game show in year 2008. The show got very high TRPs for Sony Entertainment Television and according to reports, the show helped Sony TV regain its third position in the Indian television ratings.
Khan's first film of 2009, Wanted directed by choreographer turned director Prabhu Deva was declared a smash hit in its first weekend of release itself. The action film turned out to be a huge success. The movie got more recognition for its slick action sequences performed by the actor himself. In the same year, he appeared in two other films, Main Aurr Mrs Khanna and London Dreams, both of which were failures at the box office. His first release of 2010, Anil Sharma's Veer underperformed at the box office. Khan's recent film, Dabangg produced by his brother Arbaaz Khan, was released on September 10, 2010. It made a record opening at the box office and was declared an all time blockbuster which is Khan's 4th time.
