Govinda and Salman.

Salman and his brother Sohail have adopted Govinda as a member of their extended family.And now Govinda, as emotional as ever, is ready to reciprocate the Khans' generosity.

Govinda says, "After Partner, I've been indirectly offered another film by Sohail. I've been told about it by Suniel Shetty's secretary George. I don't know what the project is and I don't care. I'd do anything for the Khans blindly. When I was down and out they could've given me any role, I'd have happily accepted. Instead they gave me a parallel role to Salman in Partner."

Govinda refuses to discuss money with his adopted family, or accept it. He says, "I refused to accept any money for Partner, although they kept insisting I should. I won't accept any money for this new project either. Does one talk money with the people who have embraced you as a brother? Sohail and Salman are largely responsible for my second inning. When I didn't take any money for Partner, Sohail drove to my house in a Mercedes and gifted the key to my wife."

For their next production, Govinda is adamant that he won't charge anything. "I won't take a single penny. Yes, it's an emotional decision. What's wrong with being emotional? I wish I had met more people like Salman and Sohail earlier in my career. I've only seen selfishness earlier."
