Govinda accuses struggling writer of giving his Family a cold

Saturday, June 20, 2009

There have been many bizarre Govinda stories seeing imaginary people, slapping innocent bystanders at shootings, refusing to mouth dialogues because "they will bring me bad luck" and claiming that the underworld is out to get him. But this one is, by far, the strangest.

Not very long ago, a struggling writer was trying to get an audience with Govinda to give him a narration of his film titled Baarish. The writer, a guy from a less-than-modest background chased the actor for months. He used whatever connections he had to get few precious minutes with Chi Chi. And he finally got to see the actor.

Too good to be true

Reveals our source, "The writer was thrilled. He gave Chi Chi a narration and told him that he wanted him to play the lead role. At the end of the meeting, Govinda hugged him and said that he'd loved the story and promised him that he would do the film." He told the excited guy, 'I will not only act in your film, I will produce it too.' The writer went back to his chawl room and told all his friends and family how Govinda had agreed to be a part of his film and how he'd even finance his directorial debut. But his happiness was short-lived.

Maine kya kiya?

The writer had a tough time sleeping that night. Late that night, when his phone began ringing and he saw the name Govinda flashing, he picked it up on the second ring. He answered the phone and heard Govinda sound very upset.

Then came a barrage of maa-behen gaalis from the actor. The poor guy didn't know what he had done to upset the actor but he soon found out. Govinda told him, "Aaj ke baad mere saamne mat aana. I will kill you. You came and narrated the script of Baarish to me, and now my children have got a bad cold, and they are suffering. It is all your fault."

The source further adds, "Chi Chi then told the boy that he wouldn't do his film and he'd make sure he wouldn't be able to make that film with anyone else either. He tried to reason with Chi Chi but the actor just abused him some more and then hung up." The writer still has to recover from the experience.
