Mumbai, Oct 1 (IANS) Bollywood actor and politician Govinda Ahuja was injured after his licensed pistol reportedly misfired while he was cleaning it at his Juhu home. He has shared a health update and said that the bullet has been removed.

In a voice note obtained by IANS, Govinda was speaking in Hindi, where he said: “Namaskar, Pranam. I am Govinda. With the blessings of all of you and the blessings of my parents, and by the grace of my Guru, I was shot, but the bullet has been removed. I thank the doctor here, respected Dr. Garwal, and I thank all of you for your prayers.

The incident took place at his Juhu home here on Tuesday morning, police officials said.

"We have learnt that he was cleaning the pistol when it misfired and injured him. We are very concerned for his health and hope that he recovers soon," a worried Hegde told IANS.

The Juhu Police Station is making preliminary inquiries into the matter though the actor's family has not officially commented on the incident, which sent ripples in political circles.
