In a startling turn of events, Bollywood superstar Govinda was discharged from the hospital today following a shooting incident that left him injured. Upon his exit, he addressed a gathering of media representatives, providing a detailed account of the incident while imploring the public to refrain from misinterpreting the circumstances surrounding it.
Seated in a wheelchair, Govinda began his statement by expressing profound gratitude to his fans across the nation. “I am thankful to everyone across the country for their love, prayers, and support,” he said, his voice imbued with emotion. “I would like to extend a special thanks to the administration, the police, and Honorable Shinde Ji. Your love and blessings have ensured my safety. I truly appreciate your kindness. Jai Mata Di,” he added, signifying his deep appreciation for the collective effort that contributed to his recovery.
Reflecting on the harrowing experience, Govinda described the incident as a “severe injury” and noted, “At that moment, I couldn’t believe what was happening. It felt surreal.” He recounted the events leading up to the shooting, revealing that he was en route to Kolkata for a performance when the incident occurred. “It was around 5 AM when I fell and started walking. I was shocked, and then I noticed blood gushing out,” he recounted, painting a vivid picture of the chaos that ensued. Following the injury, he was swiftly transported to a hospital in Juhu for treatment.
Govinda took a moment to clarify the nature of the incident, urging the public not to draw any erroneous connections. “Please do not connect this incident with anything else,” he stated emphatically, as reported by PTI. He elaborated, “When we wake up in the morning, everything seems perfectly fine. I typically remain relaxed and composed, and I certainly didn’t anticipate something like this occurring. I pray for the safety of everyone, regardless of where they are. However, let this serve as a reminder to stay vigilant.”
In recounting the incident, sources have revealed that Govinda was preparing for his trip to Kolkata when he decided to clean his firearm. Tragically, the mishap occurred due to a malfunction in the gun’s lock. At the time, the weapon was loaded with six bullets, one of which inadvertently struck his leg. This unfortunate event underscored the importance of firearm safety and the need for caution, even in seemingly benign circumstances.
