Prem, regardless of whether he was Prem from Hum Aapke Hain Koun, or Prem from Hum Saath Saath Hain, was overall respectful and mindful of what the honourable thing to do is, despite varying shades of problematic here and there.Īman from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai was actually kinder and sweeter than the very-problematic Rahul, the man Anjali ultimately ends up with.
His characters, in fact, were often the more emotional, sensitive, and respectful than that of the ‘competing’ male lead in the latter. When Salman Khan was at his prime in the 90s, the audience knew him for his chocolate boy roles in Rajshri movies and his romantic ‘softboi’ avatar offsetting the other male lead in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. Let’s chart that devolution of Salman the actor, via his choice of roles. If someone were to view Salman Khan’s on screen character's descent into darkness, they would see how the once-sincere ‘Prems’ he played, regressed into aggressive and brutish ‘Chulbul Pandeys’ few can get themselves to even understand, let alone like.
