Mini Biography
Often known as Bollywood's "bad
boy," his knack of walking into trouble has overshadowed people's
perception of him as an actor. He has been featured as the bad guy of the
industry several times over. But many-a-common-man claims that this macho hunk
has a heart made of pure gold.
Born on December 27, 1965 Salman Khan is the son of the legendary writer Salim Khan, who penned many super-hits in the yesteryear's likeSholay (1975), Deewaar (1975), and Don (1978). Salman started his acting carrier in 1988 by doing a supporting role in the movie Biwi Ho To Aisi (1988). The following year he had the leading role in the box office romantic hit Maine Pyar Kiya (1989). From there he became a heart throb of Indian cinema.
Following with other box office hits he showed his terrific performance in Saajan (1991), Andaz Apna Apna (1994), Hum Aapke Hain Koun...!(1994), Karan Arjun (1995), Khamoshi: The Musical (1996), Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998). His transformations can be sensitive, vulnerable, funny, aggressive and charming as his role demands.
In 1998 he was arrested by the local police from the shooting location of the film Hum Saath-Saath Hain: We Stand United (1999), for killing protected wild animals and spent about a week behind the bars. The actor is facing trial in three cases of killing black bucks and Chinkaras and another of illegal possession of arms. In September 2002, Salman Khan had hit the headlines after he crashed his Land Cruiser near the American Express bakery in Bandra, killing one man and injuring others.
Being known for those roguish behaviors, he tried to balance his troubled life with his career. In 2003, he gave his emotionally charged performance as playing an obsessed lover in Tere Naam (2003) that translated into good reviews and a good run at the box office. He not only managed to revive his career, but also to restore the confidence of his producers and distributors alike.
His work was noticed internationally in the movie Phir Milenge (2004) where he played the role of an AIDS patient. It was well appreciated by the World Health Organization (WHO) for presenting the problems of AIDS patient in today's world.
In 2007, he launched Being Human - Salman Khan Foundation. This charitable organization aids the underprivileged in areas such as education and health-care.
More recently, he starred in the multiple record breaking box office super-hit Dabangg (2010), Ready (2011) and Bodyguard (2011).

Personal Quotes
The only person I have hurt is
myself.
For me acting, comes straight from
the heart. In that sense I don't act at all. I think that to feel the
character's pain I have to be myself. Somewhere audiences see that.
On his childhood problems and his
father's second marriage to Helen: It was very difficult in the beginning, when
everybody was talking about it. My mother just couldn't take it. It hurt her
terribly. She used to worry all the time, go in to depression frequently. When
she cried, we children used to cry with her.
In life go straight and turn right.
(From a TV-interview) I can get
caught in many things but there is one thing I will never get caught in, and
that is acting - because I don't act. On screen I am like I am in real life.
Why should I marry? One marries to
have children, but I already have children! My nieces and nephews are my
children. I wanted to marry to make babies, but now I have them, so marriage
isn't that important, is it?
I'm not possessive, I'm caring...
Once you realize a person doesn't want that much care, you automatically back
off.
[Salman speaking about Rani Mukerji
on Big Boss] She [Rani] is one of the best actresses we have in the country...
And an amazing dancer... Look at that smile! Love you, Rani.
Sometimes it happens with me that I
start laughing and just can't stop.
She [Rani Mukerji] knows who she is
and what she can do. After a long time Bollywood has got an actress like Rani.
She is naughty, masti khor and a wonderful friend. She has taken acting as her
career and given her 100%. Somehow Rani has acting in her genes.
[When asked about the best actresses
from the current crop] There's Rani, then there's Preity, Based on work,
Aishwarya... Priyanka is very good... Then there are the new girls like Lara
and Katrina. [When asked his favorite and the best out the lot] As an actor?
Rani Mukerji. [Smiles]
