How Aamir Khan's decision shaped Salman Khan's success

Salman Khan found success after Aamir Khan rejected the script of a fan-favourite movie

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan owes a significant part of his global fame to Aamir Khan’s refusal of a lead role.

According to Indian media, Aamir Khan was the first choice for the character 'Prem' in the blockbuster film "Hum Aapke Hain Koun," opposite Madhuri Dixit.

However, Aamir turned down the offer due to dissatisfaction with the script.

At that time, Salman Khan was struggling to establish his career.

The filmmakers then offered the role to Salman, who accepted it immediately, unaware that this decision would mark the beginning of his successful career.

Salman Khan's portrayal of 'Prem' received widespread acclaim from fans.

The role not only brought him fame but also established him as a romantic hero in Bollywood.

Released in 1994, "Hum Aapke Hain Koun" featured a star-studded cast including Anupam Kher, Renuka Shahane, Reema Lagoo, Mohnish Bahl, and Alok Nath.

Made on a budget of 45 million INR, the film grossed approximately 1.35 billion INR worldwide.
