Govinda wants do hardcore action films now

Govinda is about to switch lanes, drastically. Having made a career out of comic roles, he’s for the moment bidding adieu to laughter to embrace action. The preparation has started in all seriousness. Govinda has got himself a martial arts and physical trainer and is working on his physique and agility.

Says the comic virtuoso: "I’ve done action films in the past like Hatya and Shola Aur Shabnam. But they weren’t full-on actions. I now want to do an action film with stunts of an international caliber. I don’t want to just plunge into it without being fully prepared. I’ve already lost a lot of weight. But it isn’t enough. I want to lose some more."
