Govinda made a big revelation as he appeared on Aap Ki Adaalat recently. The veteran actor said that he was approached by James Cameron for his All Time Blockbuster movie Avatar. He also claimed that he suggested him the title of the film.
“It was me who had given the title of the movie. I had told James Cameron that your film will run successfully in cinemas. I also added that your film will take at least seven years to complete. That infuriated him (kidding)!”
He further went on to say, “I told him that the ‘avatar’ you want in the film is handicapped. Woh ishwar ka ansh hai aur apang hai…maine kaha ki yeh nahi hoga. And you want me to shoot for some 410 days and colour my body during the shoot. So I apologized for declining and left. And as predicted by me, the film released eight or nine years later and was a super hit!”
Soon after the news became viral, Govinda became a topic of discussions on Twitter and people started cracking jokes and memes regarding his statement. Have a look below for some most hilarious ones –
