In a raspy voice, the 60-year-old actor is heard saying that the blessings of his fans, parents and his guru saved him. “I was hit by a bullet, but it has been extracted. I thank the doctors here and your prayers,” he said in the audio clip.

The actor suffered the injury around 4.45 am today when he was getting ready to leave for the airport to board a flight to Kolkata. The actor, also a Shiv Sena leader, was alone at the time of the incident. The actor’s wife, Sunita Ahuja, who was in Kolkata at the time of the incident, has reached the hospital where he is being treated.

He was operated upon and the bullet extracted. The actor’s manager said his condition is stable. He is still at the hospital and his daughter Tina is with him. Doctors have said the actor would have to stay in the hospital for at least two days.

Police have said the actor has not registered any complaint.

“We had a 6 am flight to catch for a show in Kolkata and I had reached the airport. Govinda ji was about to leave his residence for the airport when this accident happened,” the actor’s manager said. It is due to God’s grace that Govinda ji sustained only a leg injury and it was nothing serious,” he added. Govinda’s wife Sunita Ahuja left for Mumbai after she heard of the incident.
