3) Bajrangi Bhaijaan (2015):
Often regarded as Salman Khan’s most emotionally resonant film, Bajrangi Bhaijaan struck a chord across age groups. With around ₹315 crore nett and 3.54 crore footfalls, it emerged as one of the decade’s most loved blockbusters. Easily, his best film this millenium.

2) Maine Pyar Kiya (1989):
Salman’s breakthrough romance became a defining film of the late ’80s. With over 4.25 crore ticket sales, it set new benchmarks and turned him into a nationwide heartthrob. The exact data is not available at the moment but we have given the minimum figure. It's possible that the footballs might be a little higher.

1) Hum Aapke Hain Koun (1994):
The crown jewel of his career, this family entertainer rewrote box office history. Selling an astounding 7.39 crore tickets, it remains Salman Khan’s biggest hit and one of Bollywood’s most iconic successes. In the post-Sholay era, HAHK is the most watched Bollywood and Hindi movie in cinema halls and this one is unlikely to be topped.
