Bollywood doesn’t make films anymore that do justice to Govinda’s talent, says Raveena Tandon

Govindaaccidentally shot himself in the foot on Tuesday (Oct1). His former co-starin several movies, Raveena Tandon, visited CritCare Hospital in Mumbai to meet him on Wednesday (Oct 2). Tandon has always said good things about Govinda and asserted that there is no actor like him in the industry.

In an interview withThe Lallantopearlier this year in January, Raveena talked about Govinda as an actor and stated, “I think us type ki filmein jahan Chi Chi ka talent correctly use ho sakta hain, I think woh kind of filmein ab nahi ban rahi hain. I don't think Chi Chi jaisa actor iss industry mein paida hua hai! Jo apko hasa hasa ke ek hi scene mein rula de, maine aaj tak koi actor nahi dekha jo kar sakta hai. Woh comedy karte karte kaise emotional scenes main ghuss jata tha woh banda (The type of films which can do justice to his talent are not being made. I don't think any other actor like him is here in the industry. One who can make you laugh and then cry in one scene itself! How he did comedy and emotional scenes together)…”

She further added, “Main toh jab woh perform kar raha hota tha main toh use dekhti rehti thi. Jitni maine comic timing seekhi hain maine Chi Chi se sikhi hai(When he used to perform I used to just keep looking at him. Whatever comic timing I have learnt it's from him). There is no one compared to him!”
