Mumbai: Just when you think you have seen it all, social media finds creative ways to make you laugh out loud. Most recently, several videos of Govinda in an Avatar look have been going viral on social media. The videos confused many, and they began to think that the Bollywood actor cameoed in the James Cameron movie.
Soon after the release of Avatar: Fire And Ash, several AI-generated clips of Govinda as a Na’vi on Pandora appeared on X. One video showed the actor covered in blue, delivering a dialogue in his signature style. Another clip showed him dressed in a colourful jacket alongside Jake Sully.
While some instantly understood it was the work of AI and laughed at the comedy, others were left confused. They went to the extent of believing that an unexpected crossover had happened. Comments flooded online and some were just hilarious.

One wrote, “Govinda wala Avatar full movie kaha dekhne milega? sirf insta pe hi hai?” Another person commented, “Finally Govinda Made Biggest Comeback with #AvatarFireAndAsh Cameo.” A third individual commented that there was no way such a thing would have happened.
Was Govinda offered Avatar?
Soon, all netizens were convinced that they were edits made by fans for the sake of humour. However, it was motivated by an old interview given by Govinda. In the clip, he claimed he was offered Avatar by James Cameron. However, he reportedly declined the offer. Speaking to Mukesh Khanna, he stated, “I even left an offer of ₹21.5 crore, although I remember this because it was painful.” He added, “I had met a Sardarji in America and gave him a business idea to work in sweets and delicacies. Some years later, he said that the idea worked wonders for him. There, he made me meet James Cameron. He asked me to do a film with James, so I invited them for dinner to discuss it. Picture ka title bhi maine hi diya tha.”
He also added, “He said the shoot will be for 410 days. I said that it is okay, but if I paint my body, I will be in the hospital!”
