Govinda once shared a hilarious reaction from Shilpa Shetty after he accidentally shot himself. This occurred when the actor graced Kapil Sharma’s show and opened up about an unfortunate accident. While delving into the details of the incident during the show, Govinda revealed how Shilpa had reacted to it. He stated in Hindi, “When Shilpa came to meet me, she first asked me, ‘ChiChi, how did you hurt yourself? Where was Sunita?’ I told her, ‘Sunita was out; she was visiting a temple.’”

The actor, known for his comic timing, then revealed that Shilpa had queried whether he was shot by his wife, Sunita. “She then asked, ‘Who shot you then?’ (laughs),” he explained. Govinda’s revelation left everyone in splits on the Kapil Sharma Show.

For the unversed, Govinda was rushed to a hospital in Mumbai on October 1 after he had accidentally shot himself in the leg. As per reports, the actor was alone at the time of the incident, that is, early in the morning between 4:45 and 5:00 am, as he was getting ready to travel to Kolkata. After being discharged from the hospital, he talked about the incident to the press, stating, “I was preparing to leave for the show… for Kolkata. It was around 4:45-5:00 am. Woh giri aur chal padi (the revolver fell and misfired). I felt a jhatka (I was shocked) and then saw… there was a fountain (of blood).”
