Govinda launched sister Kamini Khanna's autobiography, Kamini Aisi Hi Hai, at a Juhu auditorium. The actor quipped that he would have to first improve his language skills to pen his life story. We hope the actor does it soon - it will be one helluva of a story from his Virar days, acing his dance moves to his fallout with old Bollywood aides.
Till early 2000, Govinda was considered a bankable actor in the film industry but after that, his films started bombing at box-office. In an interview last year, the actor talking about his film choices in recent years said, "I don't have any regrets about my film choices. I always did films based on my gut feeling. Sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't. I think when you feel pressured by failures then, it's a sign of weak human being. Experiencing ups and downs is a part of every individual's life."

Govinda further added, "When I started working in this industry, we were very poor and it was tough for us to buy a ticket to watch a film. But god gave me opportunities to work in films and because of that I was able to do some good work. I am thankful to my audience who have supported me over the years."
