Producer and former chairman of the Central Board of Film Certification (ZMHLZR) Pahlaj Nihalani spoke about the decline of Govinda's career during a recent interview.
The producer has made many hit films like 'Ilzaam', 'Shola Aur Shabnam', 'Aankhen' with the industry's number one hero Govinda. Pahlaj Nihalani said that the reason for his ruined career is Govinda's stubbornness. He also said that Govinda was never offered director James Cameron's film 'Avatar'.
Pahlaj Nihalani told in an interview how Govinda's career was ruined? He said, 'Govinda gradually became superstitious. Due to his superstition, he used to instruct people to change their clothes. He felt that the chandelier was falling on the set and asking people to go to the other side. He refused to shoot on certain days. He always came late for shooting. In the end, the habit of lateness and superstition became the reason for his downfall.' Govinda has claimed many times in his interviews that he was not offered director James Cameron's film 'Avatar'. But he refused. Pahlaj Nihalani has also exposed this lie of Govinda. He said, 'I started a film named 'Avatar' with Govinda. But the film could not be completed. I don't know what came to his mind with the title 'Avatar' that he started claiming that he is doing the Hollywood film 'Avatar'. His mental disc spun and switched from Hindi to English.
Govinda's last film 'Rangeela Raja' was produced by Pahlaj Nihalani. This film, released in 2019, was directed by Sikandar Bharti. This film flopped badly. After this film, Pahlaj Nihalani has not done any film till date and Govinda has also not worked in any film.
