Starting from Salman’s film Wanted, it had hit the theatres on September 18, 2009 and enjoyed the festive time of Eid. This was like a comeback film for Salman since his last few films were duds at the box office. The film is directed by Prabhu Dheva and it is an official remake of a Telugu film Pokiri. The film not only was appreciated by the fans but also did wonders at the box office too. The film had collected in a range of 60 crores which is not bad at all!
Then came the Chulbul Pandey urf Salman Khan in Dabangg which literally won the hearts of many by its super entertaining factor. Directed by Abhinav Kashyap, Dabangg went on to become popular because of Salman’s daredevil attitude as a policeman, his one liners and hilarious yet easy dance steps. His Dabangg hook step where he holds the belt and dances like a boss went so viral amongst all the age groups. The film had collected a whopping amount of 138.88 crore at the box office.
The year 2012 was a bang-on year for Salman Khan as his film Ek Tha Tiger had released at that time. We saw Katrina Kaif opposite Salman in the film and it went on to break all the previous records of his films. Their chemistry was quite appreciated by the audiences and it did work in the team’s favour for sure. The film went on to collect 198.00 crores at the box office.
