"The characters played by Satish Kaushik are historic, they are remembered even now and will always be," said Govinda
Actor Govinda, whose chemistry with Satish Kaushik became famous in the many comedies they featured in the 90s and early 2000s, remembered the actor-filmmaker as someone who improvised a lot before his scenes, often writing dialogues to bring in more laughs.
Govinda, who has acted in many films with Kaushik most notably in Saajan Chale Sasural, Deewana Mastana, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Pardesi Babu, Aunty No. 1, Haseena Maan Jaayegi, and Kyo Kii... Main Jhuth Nahin Bolta among others, remembered him as a great artist.
"When I look back today at all the movies that we acted in together, I feel very sad that we lost him. Every actor acts, but he was someone who would understand things and then perform. (woh samaj ke acting karte thay)," Govinda told PTI.
Kaushik died of a heart attack while he was on his way to a Gurugram hospital in the early hours of Thursday. He was 66. One of the most famous characters from the Govinda-Kaushik films is that of Pappu Pager, a contract killer from the film Deewana Mastana.
