If Bollywood had a hall of fame for dialogues that can make you laugh even decades later, Shakti Kapoor would have a permanent seat in the front row. His perfectly timed expressions, eccentric delivery and downright hilarious lines turned even the most chaotic characters into cult favourites. From crime master Gogo to Nandu, sabka bandhu!, Shakti Kapoor always knew which nerve to crack to make his fans laugh. This birthday, let’s revisit some of his funniest gems.

Crime Master Gogo will never get old!
A role that literally became the second name for Shakti Kapoor! No one can have done it better than him. His iconic dialogue stays, "Crime master Gogo naam hai mera ... aankhen nikaal kar gotiyaan khelta hoon main".

Nanduuuu!!!
If cuteness personified had a face with a dialogue, it has to be, "Main hoon Nandu sabka bandhu".

Anwar Miya in "Hum Saath Saath Hain"
The tuning that Anwar had with everyone in the family especially his Bhabhijaan was way too adorable. And that was proved with the dialogue, "Bhabhijaan, aap hum mein apnaye na apnaye ... hum aapko mooh dikhayi mein mile hai"!

Crime Master Gogo: The immortal villain
If we fell in love with one villain and it will always remain our favourite, then Gogo is that one name! The way he delivered the line, "Aaya hoon, kuch to loot kar jaunga ... khandani chor hoon main, khandani ... Mogambo ka bhatija, Gogo".

Gogo fans, assmeble!!
Where's the Gogo gang at, bro? Will this dialogue ever get old, "Jab koi bachcha nahin sota, to uski maa kehti hai ki ... soja soja soja nahin toh Gogo aa jayega"?
