Few months back the Asha and Friends album, saw Brett Lee write and sing a romantic duet You’re the one for me in which he also performed with the veteran singer.
The partly Hindi song was about a Westerner trying to woo an Indian beauty and had climbed to number three at one time on the music charts of a popular radio station.
S. Ramachandran who was involved in making music videos for the Asha and Friends album is supportive about the Aussie pacer. He observes, “Brett Lee was very disciplined on the sets and put on a good natural act in front of the camera. He is definitely much better than some of our hammy Khans.”

I have always believed that Govinda is the best when it comes to comedy in Indian Cinema. We shouldn’t forget that in 1990s when no one from bollywood was ready to do comedy onscreen it was our’s truly Govinda who not only did comedy but very much did justice to it as well.
His combo with David Dhawan was enough to sell movie tickets in advance. He made No.1 series famous and many of them were huge hits.
Now a days every actor seems to have gotten into comdey stuff but the question is are they capable enough to be called original? The answer is plain n simple No n Never. Even Akshay Kumar thinks himself as the comedy king of bollywood but he completely sucks. It took him more than 2 dozen films to be called n accepted as an actor. When he debuted in early 90s he was a flop actor with no skills other than martial arts and action stuff. He got lost into the likes of 3 KHANS. If there was somone who gave tough competition to KHANS it was GOVINDA only. We all know the rivalry between KHANS so they never came to terms with each other very much. Salman never went for Best Actor sort of things. Aamir hated awards and did very few films so he was out of equation too. Only Shahrukh was the only KHAN who remained at the top and made a strong impact. He made huge pair with KAJOL(An all time best pair). He gave bollywood a new direction to follow and etc. Whereas Govinda took the most advantage of KHANS rivary. He kept his cool and played the right cards when needed. It is not wrong to state that he even surpassed Shahrukh in some departments. Govinda was versatile whereas Shahrukh only could do Romantic roles. Shahrukh sucked in both Comedy n Action while Govinda did all of these with ease.
If anyone doesn’t believe me just search the history and 90s. Govinda ruled 90s not Shahrukh. I know Govinda didn’t get many awards since he was doing comedy onscreen and comedy actors are not supposed to win best actor. He gave many more hits in 90s than Shahrukh. ust scroll through the history pages and you’ll know. Both of them have given an (All Time Blockbuster). Govinda’s only All Time Blockbuster Aankhen AND Shahrukh’s only All Time Blockbuster Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaayenge. Both of them gave many other blockbusters, superhits and hits. So if there was ever a superstar that gave Shahrukh arun for his money he was none other than Govinda.
