Govinda Naam Mera starring Vicky Kaushal, Kiara Advani, and Bhumi Pednekar released on Disney+Hotstar on December 18, and here are the Janta’s reviews on the film!
Directed by Shashank Khaitan, the story of Govinda Naam Mera revolves around Govinda Waghmare(Vicky Kaushal), a struggling choreographer, who is stuck in a marriage where his wife Gauri (Bhumi Pednekar), dominates and insults him at every opportunity and his love for his girlfriend, Suku(Kiara Advani) who is a backup dancer just like him. But his problems snowball and life turns into a roller coaster ride when someone is murdered and he becomes the prime suspect. The film sets out to deliver an entertaining mix of comedy and mystery in this 90s-style thriller.
The one thing that the audience has been talking about the most is Ranbir Kapoor’s cameo in the film. While he was just there for a mere 2 minutes, he left a good enough impact and a smile on everyone’s face with his quirky dialogue delivery. After watching the trailer, a huge part of the Janta had no expectations of a good story from this film which is why it came as a total surprise when they were invested in the constant twists and turns throughout the film.

Here's some more of what the Janta had to say!
#GovindaNaamMera has been watched- a fun filled rollercoaster with lots of twists and turns..the climax is to watch out for. #VickyKaushal the actor u are, was the life of the film and he nailed the comedy genre really well. The jail scenes teasing Suku really left me in spilts. pic.twitter.com/NWBsAnipjw

#GovindaNaamMera was a fun watch with an engaging second half and entertaining twist and turns in the climax. #VickyKaushal did a very good job and his comic timing was also amazing. #KiaraAdvani is improving with her every other performance and she was looking hot too. 3/5 https://t.co/MHIHqc6DDvpic.twitter.com/q8s6bffet1

Released this week on Hotstar, GNM is a movie about a down-on-his-luck guy, who is faced with an opportunity and how he turns things around.
The hero is very un-hero-like. Works as a dancer, he isn't respected by anyone, including his wife.
Govinda Naam Mera is entertaining, Suspense, thriller and Delightful to watch movie. Once again @advani_kiara mam has done Classy act performance as Suku. She already delivers two blockbuster act performance and this will be her third Blockbuster OF this year. pic.twitter.com/26suGzI7UX

Don't judge a book by its cover. In other words don't just this movie just watching the trailer #GovindaNaamMera is a must watch movie. It was rollercoaster ride. There was comedy, drama, emotions, thriller, suspense and what a climax. Kudos to Shashank for making this movie

That #RanbirKapoor cameo was pretty innovative #GovindaNaamMera

Being both viewer and a fan, I'm so so proud of Kiara. What a growth and what an improvement as an actor. Kiara as Sukku especially in second half was so interesting to watch. Hats off Ki. You just nailed it ๐ฅบโฅ๏ธ @advani_kiara#KiaraAdvani โข #GovindaNaamMerapic.twitter.com/Rs1835WWnW

Govinda Naam Mera is a story of murder. They have murdered the direction, acting, script and music.

My expectations were on the floor but this film surprisingly exceeded shut me up. 2 hours flew by with laughter. Fun story as well with some great twists. Really enjoyed it the entire cast killed it as well especially Vicky and Bhumi. Will actually recommend ๐ฏ#GovindaNaamMerapic.twitter.com/l0zOTi4drs

#GovindaNaamMera: Watched with zero expectation & thankfully turns out a nice surprise, that trailer or songs didn't justify. Many fun elements will remind you of #Lootcase (it's one of those black comedies) #VickyKaushal@Advani_Kiara are kadak, and so is rest of the cast๐๐คญ๐ pic.twitter.com/0JHqYXFSTd

This 100sec cameo of Ranbir Kapoor Stole the Show!#GovindaNaamMera
โ Rabiya๐ (@rabiya_dahar) December 17, 2022
Vicky K in a comic role was also a treat to watch and Bhum P and Kiara A looked super good- Nice casting
Story was nice and screenplay was quite average
Iโll give it a SOLID 3/5 pic.twitter.com/K1vaAmqbzw
The funniest one so far is surely @vickykaushal09 saying "Action se darr lagta hai isiliye dancer bana nahi to apne papa ki tarah fight master banta". #GovindaNaamMera

Watched #GovindaNaamMera and can I just say that I really didnโt see that coming in the end. I laughed and was intrigued. Holy shit Vicky was too fun and had fun portraying Govu.Kiara did amazing and that one scene in police station,she killed it. Bhumi was amazing @advani_kiara
