Though Maine Pyar Kiya was a defining moment in Salman Khan’s career, he found himself overshadowed by co-star Bhagyashree. During an earlier interview, the actor said that his co-star Bhagyashree got married, left the cinema, and walked away with all the credit for the film.
Maine Pyar Kiya was based on a typical story of a wealthy man-meets-poor girl romance in which Prem (Salman) and Suman (Bhagyashree) fall in love and endure family differences. The film was well-received by critics and audiences alike, and it went on to become the highest-grossing film of the 1980s.
