Govinda is one of the celebrated stars in Bollywood with effortless comic timing dazzling dance moves and a smile that has left an imprint on viewers hearts. Fondly known as Chi Chi by his fans and the industry Govinda made his debut in 1986 with the film Ilzaam which turned out to be a hit. Soon Govinda became a household name. Throughout the years Govinda has made a name for himself in the industry and despite his last hit film being in 2009 fans still love to watch him on screen. However do you know that Govinda considered an actor as his Guru and signed movies after listening to his name? Yes you read that right! Govinda has always been an admirer of veteran actor Dharmendra and often chose films with titles similar to Dharmendras (Dharam ji) claims NDTV Hindi. However he was very often criticised for this. As per NDTV Govinda in an interview opened up on the same and said It all started with Shola Aur Shabnam which was a hit and after that his (Dharam jis) film was again named Aankhen. This went on for a long time I believe that whether a film is a hit or a flop is decided by the title of the film. Hence Govinda often considered Dharmendra a big star. Not just that Govindas wife Sunita used to keep Dharmendras photos in her room. Govinda first worked with Dharmendra in the 1987 film Dadagiri. After this the pair appeared in Paap Ko Jalakar Bhaag Kar Dunga Loha Zulm Hukumat Rakhwale Kaun Kare Qurbani Sachchai Ki Taaqat and Lathi. Govinda has worked in more than 130 films in his career so far and Dharmendra has appeared in more than 200 films in his six-decade-long career. Meanwhile Govinda was last seen in Rangeela Raja (2019) which flopped badly. On the other hand Dharmendra was last seen in Karan Johars film Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani.
