Govinda's portion was dropped due to changes in plot, says Anurag Basu
It's our loss that he isn't there, said Anurag Basu
Jagga Jasoos will release on July 14
Recently a still from Jagga Jasoos featuring Govinda and lead pair Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif went viral. The film still resurrected the debate whether or not Govinda will be seen in the film, which will hit the screens on July 14.
Earlier there were reports that Govinda was dropped from the project after he demanded changes in the script and because of his "unprofessional behaviour" on the film's sets. The names of Amitabh Bachchan and Jackie Shroff were suggested for the part Govinda was to play. A source told mid-day that Govinda's team tried to convince Anurag Basu to retain the actor's scenes in the film. Govinda reportedly played the role of Jagga's (Ranbir Kapoor) foster father.
Govinda was last seen in Aa Gaya Hero (2017), which tanked at the box office. His last hit film was 2014's Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty, co-starring Akshay Kumar.
