Govind Arun Ahuja (born 21 December 1963) is an Indian actor-turned-politician, who has appeared in more than 120 Hindi-language films. A leading actor throughout the late 1980s & 1990s, Govinda is known for his slapstick performances and dancing skills. He has received 12 Filmfare Award nominations and won two Filmfare Special Awards and one Filmfare Award for Best Comedian. Starting out as an action and dancing hero in the 1980s, his first film was 1986's Love 86, which turned out to be a profitable venture at the box office.
