Then, in 1993, he acted in nine different movies: Platform, Shaktiman, Dhanwan, Ek Hi Raasta, Sangram, Dil Hai Betaab, and Bedardi.

Following his role in the critically panned film Itihaas, he acted in Indra Kumar's phenomenal smash film Ishq (1997), which also starred Aamir Khan, Juhi Chawla, and Kajol. He finished the decade with highly successful movies such as Raincoat (2004), for which he won his second National Award, Yuva (2004), Apaharan (2005) - nominated for a national award - Omkara (2006) and Raajneeti (2010).
