Netflix's 'The Great Indian Kapil Show': Govinda graces the comedian's show, calls nephew Krushna Abhishek a 'donkey', video goes viral

Veteran actor Govinda was the new guest on Netflix’s ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ and he finally had a reunion with nephew and comedian Krushna Abhishek. He even jokingly called him a donkey.

The infamous rift between  Govinda and his nephew Krushna Abhishek has been making headlines for ages. Opening up about the same for the first-ever on a public platform, Krushna Abhishek bared his soul expressing his love for Govinda in the episode of Maniesh Paul’s podcast back in 2022.

Spreading like a wildfire, the video instantly turned a rage across the internet, offering a step towards closure to the long tiff. Piquing the curiosity of the audience, Maniesh Paul was clicked with Govinda at his office for the shoot of his podcast, leaving everyone wondering about the senior actor’s response to his nephew.

Krushna had previously said in a  statement to Spotboye back in 2020 that he did not want to perform in the episode featuring Govinda because he did not want their interpersonal equation to affect the show. “For comedy to be effective you need to work in a warm friendly atmosphere. Laughter can only be generated in the midst of good relations,” he had said.

Govinda had then said that both Abhishek and his wife Kashmera Shah have made a “scapegoat of their defamatory comments” out of him. He said the statements were “voyeuristic” in nature. “I strongly believe that washing dirty linen in public is an indication of insecurity and allows outsiders to take advantage of a family’s misunderstandings,” Govinda said , as per The Indian Express.
