Govinda guards his privacy…

Govinda, the people’s actor, has suddenly become very conscious about his privacy and wants no one around him, at least not when he’s traveling in his car.

The reason? He doesn't want anyone to eavesdrop on his cell phone conversations.

A busy actor-politician, Govinda uses his cell phone a lot, and has off late become very particular about who hears those conversations.

At times he drives to work himself, but otherwise he likes to have only the driver in the car. His bodyguards are not allowed to travel with him. They travel behind him in separate vehicles.

According to reports, Govinda makes his three his armed bodyguards travel behind his Mercedes Benz in auto rickshaws.

However, while Govinda admits that he does travel separately with the driver in his Merc because he is constantly talking on the phone and these are all confidential political calls, he denies the other half of the reports.

He says his bodyguard and staff does not travel in auto rickshaws but in an Ambasssador car, which follows him.
