Govinda had a gala time in Cape Town while shooting for his forthcoming film "Life Partner" - so much so that he didn't leave the location even a week after his shots were completed.

"Govinda has done an excellent job in the film and considering the professional that he is, he finished his schedule on time. But we all bonded so well and got so attached and had so much fun during the shoot that he didn't leave the location even a week after his pack-up, " Rumy Jafry, the director of the film, told.

Govinda plays a divorce lawyer in the film, who doesn't believe in the institution of marriage. The movie also stars Tusshar Kapoor, Prachi Desai, Fardeen Khan and Genelia D'Souza.
