Veteran actor Govinda was supposed to be a part of the Anurag Basu directional venture but his role was chopped off at the last moment. Now, the Hero No. 1 actor has expressed his happiness to Rishi Kapoor, who recently lashed out at the Jagga Jasoos filmmaker for lukewarm response of the film. Rishi also slammed the director for removing Govinda’s part for which the actor is now thankful.
Speaking to a leading daily. Govinda said, “Thank you Rishi sir. At last, you showed concern. Good blood never speaks wrong”.

Recently Govinda also took to Twitter to express disappointment and shared that he didn't charge any amount for appearing in the Anurag Basu film. "I gave full respect to Kapoor family. I did the film because he (Ranbir) is my senior's son. I was told I will get the script. I was told they will narrate the film in South Africa and I didn't even charge my signing amount (and) made no contracts," the actor tweeted.
The 53-year-old actor further said, “"I was unwell and on drips, but still I travelled to South Africa and did my shoot. There were various negative stories and negative articles only for Govinda and that's how the film was remembered for three years”.
Jagga Jasoos starring Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaifhas raked in Rs 48.77 crore in two weeks. While the first week earned Rs 43.12 crore, the second saw the graph dip to Rs 5.65 crore.
