As reported by Indian Express, Govinda was on his way to Kolkata when an unexpected accident occurred. His manager Shashi Sinha shared the details of the incident and confirmed that Govinda is now in a stable condition.

While placing his licensed revolver in a cabinet, the gun slipped, resulting in an accidental discharge. The bullet hit Govinda below the left knee, though it was quickly removed. Shashi confirmed that Govinda’s daughter Tina Ahuja was with him at the hospital, saying she was “interacting with everyone and doing well”.

Tina said her father underwent surgery to remove the bullet and will remain in the ICU for observation. Doctors would reassess his condition in a day. Meanwhile, Govinda’s wife Sunita Ahuja, who was away on a trip, promptly returned to stay with him.

The legendary ’90s sensation, renowned for his impeccable comedic timing and electrifying dance moves, made a striking return to the political arena in March. In a bold move just ahead of the Lok Sabha elections, Govinda joined forces with the Shiv Sena faction led by Eknath Shinde.

Surrounded by the energy of the Maharashtra chief minister, Govinda expressed his motivation for the alliance, saying he sees the party as “clean” – a refreshing choice in the often turbulent world of politics.
