As a result, fans have gotten the chance to enjoy several Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt movies together that left no stone unturned to deliver a heavy dose of entertainment.

 It is their pure love and admiration towards each other that we’ve often seen them making cameo appearances in each other’s movies. Thus, presented below is Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan movie list that testify their true friendship.

6 Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt movies that are hard to miss

1. Son Of Sardar (2012)

Son Of Sardar deserves a special mention in Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt movies list. The film was led by the Singham Again actor and Sonakshi Sinha, where Sanjay Dutt was also seen in a significant role. While the comedy-caper was already hailed by the fans, the special appearance by Salman Khan in the song, Po Po was icing on the cake.

 The trippy track is sung by Aaman Trikha, Himesh Reshammiya, and Vikas Bhalla. The song itself begins with Salman saying, “Pathaan ke yaar se panga mat lena (Don’t mess with Pathaan’s friend),” and we truly feel that camaraderie in the song too.

2. Ready (2011)

Only a true Bollywood buff is ought to remember this Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt movie released in 2011. And why not? We do celebrate an absolute comedy caper, Ready by Anees Bazmee for its quirks, wits and superhit tracks. However, if you’ve seen this film enough then only you might remember the iconic cameos by the Sikandar actor’s friends including Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgn among others.

In the film, in a short stint we saw the Munna Bhai MBBS actor playing the role of a marriage registrar. Needless to say, it was a visual delight to have him in the film.

3. Om Shanti Om (2007)

Next on the list is Farah Khan’s cult classic, Om Shanti Om. Interestingly, it was neither Salman nor Sanjay’s movie. Rather, the movie led by King Khan brought so many Bollywood celebs under one roof for the song, Deewangi Deewangi and these two friends were no exception. This song also is already loved by the cine-lovers; meanwhile the frame of Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Saif Ali Khan and Sanjay Dutt sharing warm hugs has a separate fan base.

Again, this is another movie where we didn’t see them leading the comedy caper; however, the Lage Raho Munna Bhai star’s extended special appearance was a delight to watch. In the film, he was seen essaying the role of Shera, an Indian living in London who saves Salman’s character from a group of goons in the film and further plays an important role in taking the story ahead.
