/> Lately Upen Patel has been uncharacteristically nervous. "That's because I've been shooting a music video with the one and only Govinda. Can you imagine me just a four-film old newcomer with two left foot doing a jig with the awesome Govinda?"

So who says senior can't take to their juniors kindly?

Upen's face lights up as he talks about Govinda's on-camera largesse.

"Govinda just adopted me on the sets of Money Hai To Honey Hai. That's the film for which we're currently shooting the promotional music video. The song is a very racy Race kind of dance track by a new duo named Nitish-Soni.

I died when I realized I had to dance with Govinda for this song. On top if it, the film's director Ganesh Acharya was the choreographer. Govindaji and Ganeshji have done...like a million films together."

But Govinda made sure Upen was completely comfortable cavorting in combination for the camera.

"He guided me through my steps, made sure our styles matched. He's so sponatenous and free-styled while my steps are far more controlled. But you've to see us together for this number. Not for a second does Govinda let me slip up."

Upen is truly appreciative of Govinda specially at a time when stories about the senior star's eccentricities are being circulated.

"I find Govinda so normal, down to earth and nurturing. I've had some bad experiences with established actors. But one Govinda makes you forget a thousand you-know-whos," Upen laughs without giving anything way.

"Do me favour, let me not play Holi for the next five years," swears Upen after his Holi experience this year. The poor guy had to attend Kumar Mangat's Holi bash in the afternoon after shooting all night for the music video.

And then head again to shoot the song until 2 am. "I had no choice. As it is people feel I'm not promoting my release 123 which opens this Friday. But what is there for me to promote in that? I've a guest appearance and a song.

I've a full-fledged role in Kumar Mangatji's next comedy Money Hai To Honey Hai. I learnt so much from my co-stars Manoj Bajpai, Ravi Kissan and of course Govinda."
