Check Out What These ’90s Bollywood Stars Are Up to Now
Shah Rukh Khan
The Bollywood superstar made his debut in movies in 1992 with the movie Deewana and has ruled the box office ever since. With hits like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Khan established himself as the king of romance.
Salman Khan
Salman Khan has done a complete turnaround of his image since he first debuted in Bollywood. He first came into cinema with the movie Biwi Ho Toh Aisi in 1989.
Now, the goofy and lovable Salman has become the ultimate tough guy of Bollywood. With movies like Wanted and Dabbang, the actor has cemented a legacy and an unbeatable following. He also owns a brand called Being Human that sells clothing.
Akshay Kumar
Akshay Kumar has done everything, from romance to hardcore action. A local Chandni Chowk boy, he debuted in 1987 with the movie Aaj and found success with the action comedy film series Khiladi.
However, the true golden years of Kumar were when he churned out comedy gold one after the other with movies like Singh Is Kinng, Welcome, and Bhool Bhulaiyaa. These days, the highest-paid Bollywood actor focuses more on movies that also send a social message.
Aamir Khan
This Khan came from a Bollywood family and made his debut with the movie Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak in 1988. He ruled the screen in the ‘90s with his good looks and great comedic timing.
However, Khan’s true claim to fame came in 1999 when he produced and starred in Lagaan, which was India’s official entry to the Oscars that year. Since then, this Mr. Perfectionist has churned out multiple hits and even donned the director’s cap. Khan’s latest success, Laal Singh Chaddha, is the first-ever adaptation of the Hollywood hit Forrest Gump.
Bollywood in the ‘90s was the place to be. Actors and actresses who ruled the decade also ruled the hearts of their fans.
