Govinda, who with his back-to-back smash movies made an entire generation cry, laugh, and dance, once signed a staggering amount of films.
The 90s comedies that Bollywood superstar Govinda starred in have all amassed a significant cult following over the years. Hero No. 1, Haseena Maan Jayegi, Jodi No. 1, Coolie No., and other films were among those he produced.
With his back-to-back successful movies, the seasoned actor brought a generation to tears, laughter, and dancing. Over the course of his more than three decades-long career, he has appeared in over 165 Bollywood films. But did you know that in only one day, he signed record-breaking films?
Govinda acknowledged signing numerous films in a single day during a conversation. He claimed that at one point, he had approximately 70 movies in his collection. He claimed that despite having agreed to be in all 70 films, he had to back out of a couple because of scheduling conflicts.
He said, “Ji haan mere paas sattar filme thi (yes, I had 70 films).” The 59-year-old actor added, “70 films thi beechme, iske baad kuch 8-10 apne aap close ho gayi, 5-6 pictures jo thi…uske baad 4-5 pictures jo hai mujhe chhodni padi dates ki vajah se.” He even stated that there were days when he had to shoot for 2-5 films on the same day
Govinda recalled Satish Kaushik, an actor and filmmaker, as someone who added humour to his parts through improvisation. At the age of 67, Satish suffered a heart attack in Delhi on March 9 and passed away in Mumbai the same day. Govinda recalled the seasoned actor. Many of Govinda and Satish’s comedy from the 1990s and the early 2000s were characterised by their on-screen chemistry.
