Govinda has told ANI that filmmaker David Dhawan stopped their partnership after 17 films because he felt he could no longer move forward with the actor. Govinda said he wanted to do an 18th and 19th film but Dhawan did not. The actor said their personal bond remains strong, adding that Dhawan becomes emotional when Govinda's name comes up. Govinda also recalled working with the late writer-actor Kader Khan, saying Khan's performance rhythm helped Govinda understand his own craft.
Fans of the 1990s hit duo often blame ego clashes for their split. Govinda's account counters that: he says David Dhawan felt the partnership could not progress further. The actor stresses their personal bond survived, with Dhawan still emotional about him. Speculation of a rift is lazy. The real test is whether Dhawan would ever direct Govinda again. That call remains Dhawan's alone.
