These clips are linked to an old interview in which Govinda claimed he had been offered a role in Avatar but declined due to the long shooting schedule and the need to apply body paint. He also stated that he had suggested the name Avatar for the film.

However, Govinda’s wife, Sunita Ahuja, expressed skepticism about the claim during a podcast, stating she had no clear knowledge of such an offer.
