Salman Khan made his debut about 2 and half decades ago in Biwi Ho To Aisi, where he had a supporting role to play. Since then, he has featured in more than 75 films (including special appearances). His acting talent has always been under-rated, but what you simply cannot argue, is the fact that he is one of the most successful superstars India has ever seen.
Here is my list of Salman Khan’s Top 10 Performances
1. Tere Naam: Salman put his heart-n-soul into the character of Radhey Mohan in Tere Naam. The movie came at a time when his career was quickly sliding and brought him back into reckoning. Although the film wasn’t one his biggest hits commercially, it remains his most liked and acclaimed performance.
2. Dabangg: It was a close call between Dabangg and Tere Naam as Salman lived the character of Chulbul Pandey to the fullest. Humor, Anger, Romance.. it was a prefect blend of every emotion. The commercial success of Dabangg was also the turning point of his career after a prolonged lean patch.
3. Hum Aapke Hain Kaun: These kind of boy-next-door roles are actually very tough to enact because there is a very thin line, which if crossed might look pretty awkward or unconvincing on screen (like Hrithik Roshan in Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon). But Salman played the iconic character of Prem with ease and looked every bit the character.
4. Judwaa: This was the movie that started his partnership with David Dhawan and they both went on to work in several hits over the last decade. Both the characters – Tapori Raja and the nice guy Prem – were poles apart from each other. And Salman was at his best here. Unfortunately, he won’t be a part of the sequel.
5. Maine Pyaar Kiya: This is were it all started for Salman Khan. Under Sooraj Barjatya’s brilliant direction, Salman was raw and lovable. Considering the fact that this movie was only his 2nd release, his performance was superb. He fitted the role to the T and Maine Pyaar Kiya made him an overnight superstar.
6. Wanted: Salman looked at ease with action in the remake of Pokkiri and played both the rowdy as well as the officer’s part very well. Action scenes were brilliantly done. Although Wanted wasn’t as successful as Dabangg, it started the trend of south remakes and action entertainers in Bollywood (along with Aamir’s Ghajini of course)
7. Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam: This movie boasts of some power packed performances by all it’s lead stars – Ajay Devgan and Aishwarya Rai were terrific, but Salman was a stand-out. His chemistry with Aishwarya was electrifying, arguably the best he has shared with any of his leading ladies. The off-screen relationship that the two shared during the time, translated into beautiful chemistry on screen.
8. Biwi No. 1: The portrayal of a infidel husband, caught between his loyal wife and an attractive girlfriend, with elements of comedy was done perfectly by Salman in this David Dhawan directed entertainer. The movie went on to become the biggest hit of the year.
9. Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai: Salman played the role of a brat and then a responsible father with utmost conviction. The character was tailor made for him and left a lasting impression. The Deepak Sareen directed film also featured Twinkle Khanna.
10. Jaan-e-Mann: This is one of my personal favorites, simply because it didn’t do too well at the box-office. I still wonder why the movie failed to make a mark, but for me this is one of the best emotional performances by Salman, ever!
So there it is, that’s my list of Salman Khan’s Best 10 performances. More than the film’s popularity and success, the list is based on his on-screen histrionics, which is the reason why some of his biggest hits are ranked lower. Also I pondered a lot but found it hard to include Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Andaz Apna Apna, Karan Arjun, No Entry, Mujhse Shaadi Karogi or Saajan as these movies had some solid performances by his other male co-stars.
Some of his other noteworthy performances that didn’t make it to the Top 10 list were Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya, Khamoshi , Pyaar Kiya to Darna Kya and Garv.
Do give your views and your own Top 10 list. Any other performance which you consider was worthy enough to make it to the list?

Throughout this great pattern of things you’ll receive an A+ with regard to effort and hard work. Where exactly you actually misplaced us was first on the details. As people say, details make or break the argument.. And it could not be much more correct right here. Having said that, permit me reveal to you what exactly did do the job. The authoring is definitely quite convincing and that is most likely the reason why I am making an effort in order to opine. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, although I can easily notice a leaps in reason you come up with, I am definitely not sure of how you seem to unite your ideas which inturn make the actual conclusion. For the moment I will yield to your issue but wish in the foreseeable future you connect your dots much better.

I would also like to express that most people that find themselves without the need of health insurance can be students, self-employed and people who are not working. More than half of those uninsured are really under the age of 35. They do not experience they are wanting health insurance as they are young as well as healthy. Their own income is often spent on homes, food, in addition to entertainment. Lots of people that do represent the working class either whole or as a hobby are not provided insurance by their jobs so they go without owing to the rising expense of health insurance in america. Thanks for the ideas you reveal through this site.

I have really learned newer and more effective things out of your blog post. Also a thing to I have observed is that normally, FSBO sellers are going to reject anyone. Remember, they would prefer not to use your expert services. But if a person maintain a gentle, professional relationship, offering support and keeping contact for around four to five weeks, you will usually have the ability to win a business interview. From there, a listing follows. Thanks a lot

I believe that a property foreclosure can have a important effect on the client’s life. Real estate foreclosures can have a 6 to decade negative effect on a applicant’s credit report. The borrower having applied for home financing or virtually any loans even, knows that the worse credit rating is definitely, the more challenging it is to have a decent financial loan. In addition, it may affect a new borrower’s capacity to find a respectable place to let or rent, if that becomes the alternative housing solution. Great blog post.
Thanks for your publication on this web site. From my own personal experience, occasionally softening right up a photograph may possibly provide the photo shooter with a little an creative flare. Often times however, this soft cloud isn’t precisely what you had under consideration and can usually spoil a normally good photo, especially if you consider enlarging the item.
I’ve learned result-oriented things through the blog post. One more thing to I have discovered is that typically, FSBO sellers will probably reject an individual. Remember, they can prefer to never use your providers. But if anyone maintain a reliable, professional connection, offering aid and keeping contact for about four to five weeks, you will usually have the capacity to win a conversation. From there, a house listing follows. Thanks a lot

I have seen many useful points on your web page about computers. However, I’ve the viewpoint that laptops are still less than powerful adequately to be a good option if you usually do jobs that require a great deal of power, just like video touch-ups. But for world wide web surfing, microsoft word processing, and a lot other frequent computer functions they are fine, provided you can’t mind the small screen size. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
