Looks like the famous mama-bhanja of the industry Govinda & Krushna Abhishek are not in a mood to mend their issues any time soon!
Krushna has once again opted out from the shoot of The Kapil Sharma Show’s upcoming episode featuring his mama (uncle)Govinda .This is the second time that Krushna has avoided coming face-to-face Govinda and his wife, Sunita on the Kapil Sharma Show. The two have had a strained relationship for the last few years.
In a recent interview to Times Of India, Krushna has confirmed that he would not star in the upcoming episode of The Kapil Sharma show, and said that he has been trying to accommodate the show as well as his upcoming film. While he has usually been able to do so, he decided to not change the dates for the special episode featuring Govinds.
He said, “Since the past 15 days, I have been shuttling between Raipur and Mumbai to shoot for my film and Kapil’s show. I would always go that extra mile to adjust my dates for the show. However, when I learnt that they would be appearing as celebrity guests in the upcoming episode, I didn’t want to be a part of it, so I didn’t try to adjust my dates. I believe both parties don’t wish to share a stage.”
Krushna added that he wasn’t sure ‘what statement might blow up’. “Yeh meri taraf se bhi hoga aur unki taraf se bhi hoga (this will happen from my side and their side as well). Also, it’s a comedy show. Pata nahi kaun si baat lekar badi baat bann jaye aur phir wohi sab hoga ki aisa bol diya, waisa bol diya (You never know which statement might blow up). I didn’t want to create an issue. I am sure that the audience waits in anticipation for my gig when Govinda ji comes on the show, but I realised that it was better not to perform.”
Krushna further added that he has never questioned Kapil Sharma and the creative team on their decision to invite Govinda and said, “Why should the team spoil their relationship with Govinda? It’s a family matter...an internal matter. Kapil is extremely fond of him and shares a great bond with him. I wouldn’t want Kapil to spoil his equation with him.”
This isn't the first time that Krushna avoided featuring in TKKS with Govinda on the show. Last November too he had opted out of the episode featuring Govinda.
Following that, Govinda issued a statement addressing ‘defamatory comments’ made by Krushna. “I am utterly sad to talk about this in public, but it is high time that the truth came out. I read the report about my nephew (Krushna Abhishek) not performing on a TV show as I was invited as a guest. He also spoke about our relationship. His statement had many defamatory comments and was thoughtless,” he had said in the statement.
