Govinda’s revolver accident: The actor will be shifted to the normal ward today, says wife Sunita

Speaking to reporters, Sunita thanked Govinda’s fans for their prayers and asked them not to panic.

“Govinda sir is fine today. He will be transferred to the normal ward today. He will be released tomorrow or the day after. With everyone’s blessings, he has recovered.”

“So many people are praying for him, he has such a big fan base. I want to tell fans to please don’t panic. He will start dancing in a few months,” she said.

Govinda, known for films like “Love 86”, “Swarg”, “Dulhe Raja” and “Partner”, was injured in the leg on Tuesday after his revolver accidentally exploded at his Mumbai residence as he was about to leave for the airport. Sunita was in Jaipur and returned to Mumbai after learning about the incident.

Earlier, Mumbai Crime Branch officials met the actor and inquired about the incident, officials said on Wednesday. While the local police were investigating, the Mumbai Crime Branch has also launched a parallel probe into the incident. So far, no one has filed a complaint in this matter, the police said.

Dr. Ramesh Agarwal, who took care of the actor after the accident, said the bullet hit him below his left knee and he received 8-10 stitches.

Govinda, a favorite of audiences for his impeccable comedic timing and dancing skills, later issued a statement telling his fans that he was doing better.

“With the blessings of my fans, my parents and God, I am doing better now. I was hit by a bullet which has now been removed.”

“I thank the doctor here, Dr. Agarwal ji. Thank you all for your prayers,” the “Hero No 1” actor and member of the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena said in the audio message.
