Govinda Paranoid About The Underworld!

We almost fell out of our chair laughing when we heard this one…

Govinda has signed on to play the lead role in Suniel Shetty’s film “Loot.” When it came to finally filming, the funnyman was a big baby and refused to film in any of the three countries selected by the producer because - wait for it – he was terrified about the underworld getting to him!

An industry source recalls: “Sunil Shetty, along with his director Rajneesh Thakur went location-hunting for his action-comedy Loot. The duo went to the Philippines and two other countries.

But when he came back and told Govinda about the locations, the actor told Sunil that there were underworld elements in the countries selected by him, and he wouldn’t shoot there! Chi Chi then made it clear that he  would only shoot only in Bangkok.”

As we type, the crew is on their way to Bangkok for a 40-day schedule! :)

Little Sahara Shaha must have pulled at Salman Khan’s heart strings because just days later the actor joined forces with his friends for a charity football match.

Several actors including Sohail Khan, Govinda and Ranbir Kapoor donned dark blue football jerseys to showcase their football skills against Pune XI in a tournament co-organised by the ‘Salman Khan Foundation’ to raise funds for cancer patients.

“I am not concerned with who and how many goals are scored. My focus is on the ultimate purpose of the game for a social cause and by the grace of God, it will benefit the needy,” said Govinda.

Suniel Shetty, who experienced the pain of losing family members to cancer, was also present at the event but did not play because of a bad knee. “This is for charity and a great cause, so, it’s a great reason to be here,” said the action hero.

The Bollywood team won the match with the scoreline reading 9-5.
