Those movies were like a breath of fresh air, really showing off his range and making us all fall for him in a new way. Let’s take a trip down memory lane and check out those classic performances!
One film that really captures Salman Khan's "soft boy" vibe is Maine Pyar Kiya. This movie is a true classic through and through! It’s where Salman Khan really won hearts with his sweet, down-to-earth role as Prem.

It’s like you could feel every bit of his charm and sincerity. That film was such a turning point for him, and it’s definitely one of those movies you can't help but smile about when you think of the '90s Salman!
After Maine Pyar Kiya, Salman Khan took his soft boy charm to the next level in Hum Aapke Hain Koun! Released in 1994, this film had Salman playing Prem again, and boy, did he nail that romantic hero vibe! His chemistry with Madhuri Dixit was off the charts, and you could really feel the emotion in every scene. It’s a heartwarming film where Salman’s character struggles with love and family, and it’s just beautiful. The emotional rollercoaster paired with hit songs makes this film a classic. If you're in the mood for some old-school romance and seeing Salman Khan in his lovable best, this is a must-watch!
Another milestone in Salman Khan's career was Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. Released in 1999, this Sanjay Leela Bhansali blockbuster had Salman and Aishwarya Rai, who were off-screen lovebirds at the time, creating some serious movie magic. Salman played Sameer, a passionate musician deeply in love, and he really dug into the emotional depth of his role. His performance was raw and heartfelt, earning him tonnes of praise. The film snagged 7 awards at the 45th Filmfare Awards, locking in its spot as one of Salman’s standout hits from the '90s. All we can say is, if you haven’t seen it, you’re seriously missing out!
Hum Saath Saath Hain is an absolute masterpiece from the ’90s. It’s all about three brothers and their wives, showing off Indian traditions and family vibes. The movie nails those big wedding scenes and really dives into our rich culture. Critics still rave about it as one of Salman’s best flicks from that era!
Andaz Apna Apna is a prime example of Salman’s comedic chops. Starring alongside Aamir Khan, Karisma Kapoor, and Raveena Tandon, Salman plays Prem in this hilarious story about two bumbling guys trying to win over a wealthy heiress. Despite its box office flop, the film's quirky humour and memorable lines have made it a cult favourite. With cameo appearances by Mehmood, Juhi Chawla, and Govinda, it’s a fun throwback to Salman’s sweet and funny side!
What made Salman Khan stand out in the '90s was how he just seemed to bring so much warmth and realness to his roles. His smile was infectious, and he had this way of making you feel every emotion with him. It’s no wonder he built such a loyal fan base that’s stuck around through the years!
