Govinda Ahuja was injured after his licensed pistol reportedly misfired while he was cleaning it at his Juhu home. He even shared a voice note to give his health update.


In a voice note obtained by IANS, Govinda was speaking in Hindi, where he said: “Namaskar, Pranam. I am Govinda. With the blessings of all of you and the blessings of my parents, and by the grace of my Guru, I was shot, but the bullet has been removed. I thank the doctor here, respected Dr. Garwal, and I thank all of you for your prayers.
