1) Mere Apne (1971)
Vinod Khanna essayed the role of Shyam a leader of a youth gang who is in constant conflict with another gang. Meena Kumar and Shatrughan Sinha were his co-stars.
2) Mera Gaon Mera Desh (1971)
This 1971 smash had Khanna portraying the role of dacoit Jabbar Singh. He brought a steely menace to his role. Film also starred Dharmendra and Asha Parekh.
3) Achanak (1973)
This 1973 thriller had Khanna playing the role of a highly-respected army officie Major Ranjeet Khanna who commits a murder. The film was partially inspired by the real life case of K.M.

4) Hera Pheri (1976)
Khanna paired up with Amitabh Bachchan in this a campy Bollywood musical melodrama about faded friendships and family secrets.
5) Inkaar (1977)

8) Amar Akbar Anthony (1977)
Three brothers are separated and united after many years - one is brought up a Hindu, another a Muslim and the last (and most memorable) a Christian. Hilarity and adventure ensues. Vinod Khanna played the role of Amar and together with Rishi (Akbar) and Amitabh (Anthony), this film guaranteed unlimited entertainment and was a BLOCKBUSTER.
9) Qurbani (1980)
This super duper blockbuster had Vinod Khanna playing the role of the parallel lead to Feroz Khan. Both the heroes become best friends who are in love with the super ravishing Zeenat Aman.

10) Insaaf (1987)
This film marked Vinod Khanna's comeback to films after his Osho phase. Film had Khanna playing the role of an advocate. Dimple Kapadia played the leading lady opposite Khanna. Film was a hit and marked Khanna's second innings in Bollywood.
