Overview

• Govinda previously claimed he was offered the lead in James Cameron’s Avatar but declined over a proposed 410-day shoot and the requirement to paint his body.
• In a June 24 interview with Uorfi Javed, Sunita Ahuja said she has no memory of any Avatar proposal being made to her husband.
• Ahuja emphasized that she does not lie or take sides and will not support unverified claims regarding Govinda’s career.
• The actor has not appeared on screen since his 2019 film Rangeela Raja, and his wife attributes the hiatus to a shortage of compelling scripts.
• Govinda also asserted that he suggested the title “Avatar” and anticipated the project would span seven years before opting out of the role.
