According to his close friend and legal advisor Lalit Bindal, the actor initially received medication after a telephonic consultation with a doctor but was later taken to the hospital when his condition did not improve. “He was given medicine after consulting a doctor and admitted to the hospital in an emergency at around 1 a.m.,” Bindal confirmed.
Medical Tests Underway; Family Awaits Reports
Govinda has since undergone a series of medical examinations, and doctors are monitoring his condition closely. While Bindal refrained from disclosing detailed information about the actor’s health status, sources have indicated that Govinda is stable and under observation.
Doctors are expected to release an official health update once test results are available. Fans and well-wishers have flooded social media with messages of support and prayers for his speedy recovery.
A Troubling Déjà Vu: Previous Hospitalisation in 2024
This isn’t the first time Govinda has faced a serious health-related emergency. In October last year, the beloved actor was hospitalised at the same CritiCare Hospital after accidentally injuring himself with his licensed revolver.
The bizarre incident occurred at his Juhu home when the firearm accidentally discharged as he was placing it inside a cupboard. The bullet struck his leg, leading to severe bleeding. “I was leaving for a show in Kolkata early morning around 5… woh giri aur chal padi (it fell and went off). I was stunned and then I saw a fountain of blood coming out,” Govinda had later recalled.
He was rushed to the hospital, where doctors performed an hour-long surgery to extract the bullet successfully. Thankfully, he recovered fully after the incident.
Fans and Industry Colleagues Express Concern
As news of Govinda’s hospitalisation spread, fans across the country expressed concern on social media, recalling the actor’s decades-long contribution to Hindi cinema. Known for his infectious energy, impeccable comic timing, and memorable dance performances, Govinda remains one of Bollywood’s most loved entertainers.
Several industry colleagues have reportedly reached out to the family, expressing solidarity and sending best wishes for his recovery.
Govinda’s Health Under Constant Observation
Hospital sources have stated that Govinda’s condition is stable but will remain under observation for at least 24 to 48 hours. The medical team is currently assessing the cause of his sudden collapse, which could be linked to exhaustion or a temporary drop in blood pressure.
An insider revealed, “Doctors are being cautious due to his age and recent health history. He is responding well to treatment and is conscious.”

From cult comedies like Hero No. 1, Coolie No. 1, Raja Babu, and Haseena Maan Jaayegi to emotional dramas such as Hatya and Shola Aur Shabnam, his versatility and charm have made him one of Bollywood’s most celebrated actors.
Even in recent years, Govinda has remained active, appearing on television shows and maintaining a strong fan base among multiple generations. His unique blend of humor, dance, and charisma has inspired countless actors and continues to entertain audiences worldwide.
Fans Await Official Health Update
