Govinda opens up about his journey in Bollywood
Govinda has been missing in action for the past few years but never has the actor slipped out of our minds. As the actor grows a year older, it is not his birthday that he looks forward to, but a film, 'Aa Gaya Hero', that will mark his comeback to the 70mm screen.

While the actor is all excited about his upcoming project, he spoke to a leading daily about his Bollywood journey. When questioned if he received his dues in the industry, Govinda said, "Neither did I get it nor did I work on it. My approach has always been to work so that I can support my family. I never planned my movies. I never selected subjects to win the National Award. I did films that made the masses happy. Sometimes, you have to sacrifice your talent to please the public. When I signed films with big directors, they didn't fare well, but whenever I did projects with zero expectations, they did great business. Somehow, planning my films never suited me. When I decided to make a comeback, I had to cash in on my brand of cinema; I didn't want to disappoint the public... I've ensured that my upcoming film will satisfy people who come to see a Govinda film."

The actor opened up about his journey, and about his upcoming film. And when asked about his 51st birthday, he responded, "Actors can't afford to think about ageing. This is the time for the release of my film, 'Aa Gaya Hero'."
