Veteran Bollywood actor Govinda and director David Dhawan have reconciled after years of estrangement. Their rift surfaced in 2019 over alleged comments, causing a fallout. Recently spotted at a Diwali bash, Govinda confirmed the patch-up, emphasizing their resolution to move forward and cherish happy memories.
In a recent development, Bollywood veteran Govinda has
officially confirmed his reconciliation with renowned director David Dhawan
after years of discord. The duo, known for their iconic collaborations in
blockbuster films like "Hero No. 1," "Coolie No. 1," and
"Bade Miyan Chote Miyan," had been at odds for an extended period.
However, their recent appearance at producer Ramesh Turani's Diwali celebration
signaled a positive turn in their relationship, suggesting a possible
reconciliation.
Speaking to Bombay Times, Govinda expressed his contentment
at the public's desire to witness their collaboration once again. "Yeh
unka pyaar hai. Our patch-up had already happened. This was our second
meeting," said Govinda. He highlighted their recent rendezvous at the
Diwali bash, where they shared pleasant moments and relished delectable
cuisine, affirming their resolve to let bygones be bygones.
Govinda further elaborated on their interaction, emphasizing that delving into past grievances was not their focus. Instead, their conversations centered around reminiscing about joyful memories from their shared past, highlighting the camaraderie they once shared.

A significant revelation came to light regarding the cause
behind their fallout. In 2019, Govinda disclosed an incident where he overheard
a conversation between David Dhawan and his secretary. Dhawan allegedly expressed
reluctance to work with Govinda, suggesting smaller roles instead. This
revelation deeply disturbed Govinda, leading to a decision to sever ties with
Dhawan. Despite attempting to reconnect later for a guest appearance, Dhawan
did not respond, solidifying Govinda's decision to distance himself.
Govinda substantiated his stance, stating, "I do not
think he is that same David Dhawan whom I used to know." However, the
recent reconciliation signifies a potential revival of their iconic
collaboration, sparking excitement within the Bollywood industry and among fans
eagerly anticipating their reunion.
