Govinda’s Son In A Car Accident, Not The First Time

Govinda’s son  Yashvardhan was  involved  in   a car accident  on Wednesday  evening. This  is  not  the  first time Yashvardhan has been in a car accident. In 2005 the  boy was in a car crash  with his mother and sister where they nearly  lost their lives.  Govinda’s wife and two children escaped unhurt although the car somersaulted  three times.

At that time  Govinda had  said to me  during an  interview, “ I  don’t know how their lives were spared. Bhagwan ka chamatkar tha. But I lost a dear  friend in the accident. I’ve got at least 20-25 yagyas performed for  the safety of my family. I’ve gone to numerous temples and dargah to seek blessings. Kahin na kahin bade-buzurgon ka aashirwaad kaam aa gaya. This too shall pass.Han, lekin mere saath atee(excessive) ho gaya hai . My mother’s blessings are with me. I spend about four hours a  day on prayers. I’ve no other means of protecting myself. It’s  the love of my family that’s protecting me. I’ve to worry  about protecting them.”

Govinda  admitted life had been  unkind to him. “One after the other ten  members  of  my family died in  one year. It’s frightening.  But what to do ? I’ve to face it.  .”
