Govinda, the superstar of the 90s, may have distanced himself from films now, but he has made lifelong friendships in the industry, with names like David Dhawan and Raveena Tandon. These friends have been by his side during tough times, even visiting him at the hospital. Among these friends is Bollywood’s very own Bhai, Salman Khan, who shares a close bond with Govinda.

Their friendship has stood the test of time, and the duo even worked together in the hit film Partner, where their chemistry was highly appreciated by fans.

Govinda, the Raja Babu star, was dressed in a white t-shirt and pants. Salman complimented him, and in response, Govinda grabbed his hand. Salman said, “He held my hand and kept saying ‘Thank you, sir, thank you, sir’ over and over again.” Salman confessed that he felt small at that moment because such a huge superstar was thanking him repeatedly for a simple compliment.
