2.?Aar Ya Paar
Stop everything and watch the most sensuous Bollywood song of all time.?Aar Ya Paar is not what you expect from a regular Bollywood movie. The plot was way ahead of its time. For a 1997 movie, Jackie Shroff's performance was bold. The only reason this thriller didn't not do well in the box office is that it got caught up with the censor board otherwise the movie would have gone through the roof.?
3. Rangeela?
The only movie from the 90s which has no villain. The movie has Aamir Khan but that doesn't make Jackie's role any less. His role as Raj Kamal is underrated. Infact, the song Tanha Tanha is not just about Urmila Matondkar but also about Jackie's sexiness. Don't believe us, then watch the song. The oomphy track with Asha Bhosle's husky vocals makes it an all time favourite.

Looking at the trailer, you can tell that despite being a war journalist, Jackie Shroff has his way of being his bold and unique self, something we truly admire.
?6. Prem Deewane
?As soon as the film starts, it comes with all the usual stereotypes and improbabilities including the social barrier between the protagonists that don't allow the lovers to meet along the conspiracies of the villains.
