Govinda said he weighed 114 kilos and had just come out of politics. He told Salman that by the time he lost weight, he would be known as a character actor, but Khan is a hero and must come out of the bad phase to look like one. “I told him, “By the time I lose weight, I’ll already be a character actor, right? I’ll continue doing the kind of roles I was doing in Partner, I was doing comedy.” I told him, “You are the hero, but you don’t look like one right now. You look unhappy, you look sad. Come out of this,” Govinda said.
