Actor Govind Namdev found himself at the center of a media storm last year when actress Shivangi Verma shared a beautiful photo with him on social media. The 70-year-old actor and 31-year-old actress sparked rumors with their picture, which Shivangi captioned, “Love knows no age or bounds.” Now, Govind is breaking his silence on their relationship.
In an interview with ETimes, Govind revealed that Shivangi wanted to create buzz around her film and present herself as a romantic couple with him. He claimed that he had given Shivangi permission to take a photo with him, but she went ahead and shared it on social media without his knowledge, tagging him in the process. This led to a misunderstanding among the public.
Govind emphasized that he didn’t want to be part of any drama and had stopped interacting with Shivangi. He also clarified that rumors about his marriage being affected by the incident were baseless. According to him, people could see the truth, and if someone chose to deny it, it wasn’t his problem. He didn’t feel the need to prove anything to anyone.
The actor took to social media to share his side of the story, posting two pictures to address the issue. He explained that he did so because people, including his close friends and family, were feeling sorry for him due to the rumors. As a respected actor, he felt it was his responsibility to speak up and clear the air.
Meanwhile, Govind Namdev’s work front has been busy, with his last appearance being in the film “Red 2” alongside Ajay Devgn, Vaani Kapoor, and Riteish Deshmukh.
