Yesteryear popular actor Govinda sustained a bullet injury on his leg at his Juhu home early this morning when his licensed revolver misfired. The incident happened when he was cleaning his weapons.
Shashi Sinha, Govinda’s manager, said the Partner (2007) actor is recuperating at a hospital in Mumbai. He said Govinda was alone at home when the incident occurred as his wife Sunita Ahuja is in Kolkata. Sinha shared that the actor was keeping the revolver in a cupboard when it fell to the floor and went off.
“We had a 6 am flight to catch for a show in Kolkata and I had reached the airport,” he said. “Govinda was about to leave his residence for the airport when this incident happened.” Sinha believes it is due to God’s grace that the actor only sustained a leg injury. “It was nothing serious.”
As such, a bullet struck Govinda below the knee. Soon after, he called up his manager and wife. The police reached his house first and rushed him to the hospital. Sinha confirmed that Govinda is still in the hospital for treatment and his daughter Tina is with him.
