There was  a time when  Tigmanshu Dhulia  commenced directing a comedy entitled Con Flick in London  starring  Govinda. This was  in  2015  . Both the actor and  the director, the latter  an unabashed  fan of the former, were  most excited.

Then  suddenly Govinda dropped out of  the  project. The reason was , Queen  Elizabeth  2.

It seems  Govinda refused to dance  in the  Buckingham Palace  for the Queen.

Let me explain. This con caper  set in London had a  situation  where Govinda and Celina Jaitley  sneak into  the Buckingham  Palace and  thereafter an elaborate  song and dance followed in front  of  an actress,  a doppelganger  of  Queen Elizabeth  playing  the Queen.

However  when Govinda heard  about this he  refused  reasoning,  “I am a member of parliament  in India. How can I dance  in  front of  the  Queen?”

Dhulia tried his best to  convince  Govinda  that it  was all for fun.But Govinda  was  adamant. The film had to be shelved.
