Govinda, 60, was taken for treatment to a nearby Criticare hospital hospital and has returned to his residence, the official said.

“We had a 6 am flight to catch for a show in Kolkata and I had reached the airport. Govinda ji was about to leave his residence for the airport when this accident happened,” the actor’s manager said.

“The revolver apparently fell down while being kept in the cupboard and misfired. It is due to god’s grace that Govinda ji sustained only leg injury and it was nothing serious,” he said.
