Actor Govinda, aka Chi-Chi, is well known for his slapstick performances, unusual fashion sense, and unmatched dancing skills. One of the most popular actors in the late 80s and the whole 90s, Govinda’s first film was Ilzaam (1986) and he has appeared in over 165 Hindi films. Govinda is one of the most talented actors in the Hindi film industry. In his career spanning over 3 decades, the actor gave many successful films. He is known for his great comic timing.
He surely reminds people of the King of Comedy movies he contributed to more than 100 Hindi films. He made his debut in the film industry in 1986 with the film Ilzaam and since he has appeared in over 165 movies like Dulhe Raja, Sandwich, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Bhagam Bhag, Hero No.1, and many others.
However, his career began to decline after 2000 because he didn’t make many discoveries. He is one of India’s most varied actors, yet he chose to stick to doing the same old things instead of trying to take advantage of his versatility. The environment has begun to change, and believe it or not to be Govinda’s unprofessionalism behavior ruined his career. Deets inside!
According to some reports, he was always late on the sets. He began to meddle in every aspect of filmmaking, listening to the wrong people and their bad advice, and he didn’t alter his unprofessional behavior. At that time his relationship with the director David Dhawan was an example of friendship. But Govinda broke ties with him, which made him, a family hero to a mass hero. The reports say Dulhe Raja actor kept on doing the same stuff and roles.
He used to arrive on the sets after dark. His era was notorious for the fashionably late arrival of movie stars, but with the advent of new-age cinema, the movie business became more organized. Govinda didn’t alter with the passing of time. While many of his peers noticed the change and adjusted, Govinda was still only interested in playing the main characters. Which was still fine, but in order to play a hero, you need to keep yourself in good shape.
Stories no longer followed the same tried-and-true format with the changing nature of cinema. Old-school actors started to take the lead while talents like Govinda vanished into obscurity.
