Govinda in a conversation with DNA revealed, “I wasn’t away. The fact is, I did not get any offers. For four years, I was sitting at home doing nothing. Wahaan, I left politics, yahaan film line ne mujhe chhod diya! Nobody approached me. When my fans would meet me at airports or elsewhere, they would ask me why am I doing some Sandhi Sudha soap ad? I said since I am not seen anywhere, I had to do something.”

During that time, there were also rumours that Govinda did not want to play elderly roles. This mindset turned into a hindrance to his career, which eventually landed him with no work. Responding to the same, the actor said, “Trust me I did not get a single offer, not even to play a father!”
Kill Dill turned a major game-changer for the Partner actor.

“Shaad Ali called me and offered this villainous role in Kill Dil. I was determined to work, but since the role was negative, I asked my wife Sunita if I should go ahead and she approved. I said yes to that film and after that, I signed nine films including Holiday and Happy Ending, in which I have a cameo. When I got enough money, I decided to produce and star in Abhinay Chakra,” revealed Govinda.
