'''''Taaqatwar''''' is a 1989 Indian [[Hindi]]-language [[action film]] directed by [[David Dhawan]] (in his directorial debut) and starring [[Sanjay Dutt]], [[Govinda (actor)|Govinda]], [[Neelam Kothari]] and [[Anita Raj]]. It was a [[box office]] failure. [[Govinda (actor)|Govinda]] worked with [[David Dhawan]] for the first time in ''Taaqatwar''. He then formed a successful collaboration with [[David Dhawan]] and went on to act in 17 movies directed by him, most of which were [[comedy films]] and were successful. David Dhawan paired actor Sanjay Dutt and Govinda together for a further three successful films much later on in his career.<br />
