A video of Bollywood actor Govinda has sparked a wave of criticism online after it showed him resting his head on the shoulder of a young girl during a flight. The now-viral video has triggered a barrage of negative reactions, with many social media users labeling the actor's behavior as inappropriate and "creepy."
The video, which circulated widely across social media platforms on Sunday, shows Govinda recording a selfie video while seemingly using the young girl's shoulder as a headrest. The girl, who appears to be caught off guard, seems uncomfortable in the video, further fueling the online backlash. The exact relationship between Govinda and the girl remains unclear; reports suggest it is unknown whether she was part of his team, a family member, or simply a fellow passenger.
Netizens were quick to express their disapproval, with comments ranging from calling Govinda "Creep No 1" to questioning his intentions. Many users felt that the actor's actions were inappropriate and displayed a lack of awareness of personal boundaries. Some comments alluded to past controversies surrounding the actor, including rumors of marital discord with his wife, Sunita Ahuja. One comment, referencing these rumors, stated, "Iski Biwi Sahi Bolti Hain" ("His wife is right about him").
The incident has reignited discussions about celebrity behavior and the responsibility public figures have to be mindful of their interactions with others, especially young individuals. The video has also drawn attention to the ease with which such content can go viral, potentially causing embarrassment and discomfort for those involved.
This controversy comes at a time when Govinda was already making headlines due to his new mustache look, which also divided fans online. While some lauded his style and speculated about a potential comeback, others criticized him for clinging to his "Hero No 1" image from the 90s. The recent in-flight video has only added fuel to the fire, further complicating the actor's public image.
It remains to be seen how Govinda will respond to the criticism, but the incident serves as a reminder of the scrutiny celebrities face in the age of social media. Every action, no matter how small, can be amplified and dissected by the online community, highlighting the importance of responsible behavior and awareness of personal boundaries.
