In the late 1980s and early 1990s, he delivered multiple hit films, including ‘Ilzaam’, ‘Marte Dam Tak’, ‘Khudgarz’, ‘Dariya Dil’, ‘Jaisi Karni Waisi Bharni’, ‘Swarg’ and ‘Hum’, which solidified his place as one of Bollywood’s top actors.
In 2024, Govinda was hospitalised when his licensed revolver accidentally misfired while he was putting it back in the cupboard, according to Mumbai Police. He was preparing to leave for Kolkata at the time.
The actor is expected to make a comeback on television soon with his reality show. (ANI)
