Govinda no matter what anyone says is an icon, no a legend. He was the biggest superstar of the 90s and there’s no denying that. Dancing, superhit movies, comedies, tragedies or action – name it and he’s aced it. But from the past few years, the actor has been experiencing a lull in his career and has been off the charts unless you count reality show appearances and a few not-so-great movies. But recently, after his interview with Rajat Sharma in Aap Ki Adalat, the actor has caused quite a stir. In the interview, he had claimed that he had been offered the lead role in James Cameron‘s Avatar. Moreover, he also said that he had suggested the title for the film as well. While the actor was speaking in complete seriousness, Twitter could not take him seriously. And as you can imagine Twitter went on to create a meme fest out of the situation. And as much as we love Govinda, some of them are pretty hilarious. And trust us when we say this will give a reason to chuckle on Monday.

I’m not too sure about this…
Are we sure #Govinda wasn’t talking about Avtaar (1983) with Rajesh Khanna, who apparently seems to have been OK with the red body paint pic.twitter.com/bgpGWrQojO

He had done and dusted roles better than Avatar.

It was a little hard to take in at first
#Govinda says he suggested #avatar‘s title to James Cameron, refused a role in the film as he didn’t want to be in body paint .

If govinda done the film, there would be a song in #avatar – neele paintwali tera naam tho bataa ?— Sreeu123 (@SreeRam64434270) July 30, 2019
The Avatar all of us deserved
#Govinda : I was offered #Avatar first by James Cameron.

If Govinda is not the next Superman… then I’m not going to be watching it.
#Govinda says he refused #Avatar because he didn’t want to paint his body blue.
Anyway here’s a leaked clip from his audition for Superman in Justice League.

The actor recently responded to the Twitter eruption of memes saying that he understands that people can’t understand why he would refuse such a film but it’s not right for them to wonder how he bagged the role in the first place.
