Despite subsequent flops like Aashiq Awara and Pehchaan, he won Best Male Debut for Aashiq Awara.
In 1994, Khan’s luck turned with the success of Imtihaan and Yeh Dillagi, where his comedic timing gained attention. Main Khiladi Tu Anari further boosted his career. However, films like Yaar Gaddar and Aao Pyaar Karen didn’t perform well, leading to a decline in his career through the late ’90s.
In 1999, Khan’s fortunes changed with Kachche Dhaage and Hum Saath-Saath Hain, the latter being a major commercial hit. However, during its filming, Khan was charged with poaching alongside other actors. In 2000, his only release was Kya Kehna, which dealt with social issues and was a sleeper hit.
