Maine Pyar Kiya Salman Khan Fees: Bollywood’s Bhaijaan Salman Khan today charges fees worth crores for every film. But there was a time when she got less fees than the actress of the film. That film is still called a blockbuster. This 3-hour movie, released in 1989, entertained people a lot. Let us know about this film and the actress of the film.

Which movie is this?

The film Maine Pyar Kiya, released in 1989, gave a new superstar to Bollywood. This film is considered to be Salman Khan’s first big hit.

This film was made at that time with a budget of only Rs 2 crores, whose gross collection was more than Rs 28 crores. It became one of the biggest blockbuster films of 1989.

Secret of Salman and Bhagyashree’s fees

The most interesting thing about the film was that Bhagyashree got 5 times more fees than Salman Khan. Salman was new at that time, while Bhagyashree was already a famous TV star. Bhagyashree, who played the lead character of ‘Suman’ in the film, received ₹ 1,00,000 (Rs 1 lakh) for this role. At the same time, Salman Khan, who played the iconic character of ‘Prem’, was given only ₹ 31,000 as initial fee. Later, seeing the huge success of the film, the makers increased it to ₹75,000, but it was still less than Bhagyashree’s fee.

Story and characters of the film

The story of the film is based on two good friends. Salman Khan’s character Prem and Suman’s (Bhagyashree) character. Both the families are very close to each other. These two, who played together since childhood, grow up and fall in love. But small things within the family create walls in the relationship. Emotions like friendship, love, family respect and sacrifice have been shown very beautifully in the film. This film of Rajshree Productions was romantic with a social message, which was very much liked by the audience of that time.

Music and songs became immortal

The music and many songs of the film remain on people’s lips even today. The music of Laxmikant-Pyarelal and lyrics of Anand Bakshi in the movie were amazing. Songs like “Maine Pyar Kiya”, “Kabhi Khamosh Baithe”, “Aaja Sham Hone Aayi” and “Dil Deewana” are still played in parties and weddings.
