Govinda thanks rishi for supporting his angst over ‘jagga jasoos’

During the enormously delayed _Jagga Jasoos _and the heated exchanges between Rishi Kapoor and Anurag Basu, one didn’t pay much attention to when Govinda walked in and out of the project.

His angry tweets about the ‘irresponsible director’ were quickly forgotten. But the veteran actor has spoken up again, this time revealing more details about why he quit the film. > Thank

 you Rishi sir. At last you showed concern. Good blood never > speaks wrong... If I had said something, it would have been > perceived as a complaint. They did what they thought was 

right and I > didn’t want to interfere. I am not here to fight. Govinda, Actor (as reported by Bombay Times) Govinda’s angry tweets had hinted at the project being all over the place, and

were probably a plea to Rishi Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor to take matters in their own hands. > 1/5 I gave full respect to Kapoor family i did the film because he > is my seniors son I 

was told I will get the script. > — Govinda (@Govinda_HeroNo1) July 7, 2017 > 2/5 I was told they will narrate the film in South Africa and I dint > even charge my signing amount

(@Govinda_HeroNo1) July 7, 2017 The actor thanked Rishi Kapoor in a recent interview for showing his concern about the film, at last. > 4/5 There were various negative stories and 

negative articles only > for GOVINDA and that's how the film was remembered for 3yrs. > — Govinda (@Govinda_HeroNo1) July 7, 2017 > 5/5 I did my job as an actor and if the 

director is not happy it's > completely his call. > — Govinda (@Govinda_HeroNo1) July 7, 2017 But, he’s taking the _Jagga Jasoos_ experience in his stride and is still open to the

idea of working with Anurag Basu in the future. > If Anurag offers me a film again, I might still do it as we all are > professionals. But this was petty and I no longer get affected
