Every 90's kid has grown up watching Govinda's films. He is our OG (original) Hero No 1. The prolific actor has entertained us for over decades with his ace comic timing, song, dance and expressions! What made his films successful, apart from comic chops and sprightly footwork, were the songs that Govinda himself sung at least a few of them.

Govinda rings his birthday with his family.

As he turned a year older today, Govinda had a special midnight birthday celebration, with family by his side. Sunita Ahuja organised the surprise bash. 

Speaking about the celebration, Govinda told ETimes:

My wife had planned a surprise birthday party for me; wherein all my friends were invited. We had a blast. There were Rajpal Yadav, Ravi Kishan, Armaan Kohli, Ganesh Acharaya, Shakti Kapoor, etc. I danced to my 90's song 'Goriya Chura Na Mera Jiya' with Ganesh Acharya. We stopped when the milkman rang the bell at 6 am." 

On his birthday, several celebrities took to social media to wish the actor.
