In Hinduism as such, or as a religion, there are various Gods, each one of them is a different divine entity.
At the core of Hindu philosophy, there is but one pantheistic, un-manifest, all-pervading godhead. All manifest creation, including all the various Gods, are manifestations of the one, un-manifest, all-pervading godhead.
