Govinda threw a lavish party at his residence in Mumbai on Sunday night, to celebrate his 57th birthday. Photos and videos from the celebrations are being widely shared online by fan clubs and show the actor dancing to his popular Hero No. 1 and Coolie No. 1 songs: Maine Paidal Se Jaa Raha Tha and Husn Hai Suhana.
Shakti Kapoor and Govinda’s wife, Sunita Ahuja, joined him on the dance floor as he jerked a leg to the beat of the songs. He also recreated their characteristic funny expressions. Later, he and Ganesh Acharya were seen burning the dance floor to the beat of Husn Hai Suhana.
In a montage shared online by a paparazzo, footage from Govinda’s birthday party was also seen, along with the two videos. Kapil Sharma was seen posing with him in one of the photos.
Govinda made his acting debut with Ilzaam in 1986 and gained success as a comedy star. Achieved several hits in the 1990s such as Raja Babu (1994), Coolie No 1 (1995), Hero No 1 (1997), Dulhe Raja (1998), Bade Miyan Chote Miyan (1998), and Haseena Maan Jayegi (1999) .

In the early 2000s, Govinda witnessed a losing streak in his career, but rebounded with Bhagam Bhaag (2006) and Partner (2007). He was last seen in a double role in Rangeela Raja, which premiered last year, but sank without a trace at the box office.
Govinda claimed in an interview with the Hindustan Times earlier this year that the film industry is controlled by a few. “Before, whoever had talent got a job. All movies would have the same opportunities in theaters. But now, there are four or five people dictating the whole thing. They decide if they want the films of those who are not close to them to be released correctly or not. Some of my good movies didn’t get the right kind of release either. But things are changing now, ”he said.
