Making his debut in the 1988 movie Biwi Ho To Aisi, Bollywood actor Salman Khan has acted in over 80 films. His role as the iconic police officer Chulbul Pandey in the Dabangg movie franchise is widely popular. Dabangg starred Sonakshi Sinha in the female lead and was the Eid release of 2010. The movie was a super hit and went on to become the highest-grossing Bollywood film of 2010. It was later remade in Tamil and Telugu. Its sequel Dabangg 2 was Salman’s second release of 2012 after Ek Tha Tiger, which was again a success story in his partnership with Sonakshi.

But Salman’s fans are in doubt if they actually need Dabangg 3. After Race 3 miserably failed to keep up with their expectations, this doubt has indeed heightened and fans have taken up this in social media where they openly express their denial to the sequel.

Salman has given life to a wide variety of characters through his films like  Maine Pyar Kiya (1989),  Andaz Apna Apna (1994),  Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! ( the same year co-starring Madhuri Dixit), Karan Arjun alongside Shah Rukh Khan (1995),  Sanjay Leela Bhansali‘s directional debut Khamoshi: The Musical (1996),  Judwaa and Auzaar (1997), the romantic comedy film Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya opposite Kajol (1998) etc. In 1999, he starred in three films: Hum Saath-Saath Hain: We Stand United and Biwi No.1, (the two highest-grossing films that year) and Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam alongside Aishwarya Rai and Ajay Devgan, which earned him another Best Actor nomination at the Filmfare awards. The film was a critical and commercial success along with its music.

From the year 2009, Salman has focused more on commercial films like  WantedMain Aurr Mrs Khanna and  London Dreams. Dabangg, that appeared the following year took his popularity way up. Other films like Ready, Bodyguard, Ek Tha Tiger, Jai Ho, Kick, Bajrangi Bhaijan, Sultan, Tubelight etc fall in this category. Though they were commercial successes, many of these films received poor critical reception. This could be one of the reasons why fans do not want their ‘Bhaijan’ doing the role of Chulbul Pandey anymore.

Salman’s Kick 2 is proposed to release on Christmas 2019.
