Govinda: “Group of people in the industry is conspiring against me”

Govinda hasn’t been having much luck with his latest releases, where his forthcoming release ‘Rangeela Raja’ is under scrutiny from the Central Board of Film Certification. Govinda has now come on record to state that there are a some people from the Indian film industry who are attempting to ensure his films don’t release.

As Hindustan Times reports, the CBFC had demanded ‘Rangeela Raja’ have up to 20 cuts before it’s release. During the film’s press conference the actor expressed, “This has been happening for the last nine years where a group of people in the film industry is conspiring against me and not letting my films release on any good platform.”

“Either my films are not getting a release or they are not getting good number of theatres or screens. The recent example was ‘Fryday’ (2018) which released a few weeks ago and media gave it a good review. They took the film away from theatres,” he went on to add.

Having worked with Pahlaj Nihalani throughout his career, Govinda went on to say, “Our film industry was never like this and it seems we are living in a different world. If someone would have supported me then I would have not faced problems. Today no one is supporting me. I don’t have financiers or producers backing me. When he (Nihalani) is supporting me, he has been told, why are you working with Govinda.”
