Summary
- Veteran actor Govinda is returning to films after a seven-year hiatus.
- His upcoming movie, 'Roopa', will also feature newcomer Rani Swarnkar.
- Govinda believes the number 14 is his lucky charm, influencing career milestones.
Bollywood actor Govinda announced his return to cinema on Monday with his upcoming film, 'Roopa'. This marks his first appearance on the big screen in seven years, with the project also seeing him serve as a producer. He will star alongside debutante Rani Swarnkar.
At a press conference, the 62-year-old actor reflected on his career, noting that he had often been written off but chose to start again. He specifically highlighted the number 14 as a significant lucky number in his life, recalling signing 14 films in a week at age 14, enjoying superstardom for 14 years, and becoming a Member of Parliament in the 14th Lok Sabha.
Govinda recently appeared on the reality show 'Lock Upp', where he humorously addressed his wife's participation and a past 'bullet incident'. He stated that he is returning to films after a five-year gap, hoping this new journey will be successful and connect with younger viewers.
Known for his comic timing and dancing in the 1990s, Govinda's past hits include 'Hero No. 1' and 'Partner'. His last film was 'Rangeela Raja' in 2019, which did not perform well at the box office.
