| 14 | The best-known example of the formula |
| 15 | associated with Govinda’s starring roles. He |
| 16 | plays Raja Babu, the spoilt and wayward son of |
| 17 | the rich landlord Kishen Singh (Khan) and a |
| 18 | doting mother (Irani). Raja seeks to seduce |
| 19 | Madhu (K. Kapoor), which involves, among |
| 20 | other stratagems, dressing up like |
| 21 | Dharmendra in Dharam Veer (1977). Just |
| 22 | before they are to marry Madhu discovers that |
| 23 | Raja is illiterate and insults his father by |
| 24 | publicly calling off the marriage. Later, Madhu |
| 25 | changes her mind, but by then Raja has agreed |
| 26 | to marry a girl chosen by his father. Later, Raja’s |
| 27 | illegitimate birth and the ambitions of the evil |
| 28 | Lakhan (Chopra), Raja’s Uncle, assisted by |
| 29 | Lakhan’s son Banke (Grover), trigger the |
| 30 | complicated climax as first Raja and then his |
| 31 | mother get thrown out of the house before |
| 32 | joining forces to defeat the crooks. The film |
| 33 | became notorious for its two song hits Aa ee |
| 34 | oo/mera dil na todo (with Govinda dressed as |
| 35 | a Congress politician and chorus girls who |
| 36 | sexily raise their severe white and blackbordered |
| 37 | sarees associated with the female |
| 38 | workers of the party) and Sarkailo khatiya, |
| 39 | both of which led to a major censorship |
| 40 | controversy following accusations of obscenity, |
| 41 | mainly since they were extensively aired on |
| 42 | satellite TV before being submitted to the |
| 43 | Indian censor board. |
