Salman Khan is celebrating his 54th birthday today, December 27, 2019. The 'Bhaijaan of Bollywood' is considered to be one of the most bankable actors in Bollywood. Salman is not just an actor, he also has his own production house and is a songwriter and singer as well. But apart from being a bankable star, Salman Khan is also a stellar actor with a significant on-screen presence. So to celebrate this stellar actor’s birthday, here are some of Salman Khan’s most underrated performances.

1. Love

This is one of the least talked about performances of Salman Khan. Love was released during the early stages of Salman’s career when he was still trying to establish his mark in Bollywood. This movie was a remake of Telugu movie Prema, where Salman’s character Prithvi is in jail as a juvenile for killing his abusive father who was responsible for Prithvi’s mother’s suicide. Even though the film did not do well at the box-office, Salman Khan’s performance left a mark on the critics.
