Govinda and his wife, Sunita Ahuja, have been making headlines amid swirling rumours about their marriage. Reports suggest that Govinda and Sunita, who have been together for 37 years, might be heading for divorce. A source close to the family informed ETimes that Sunita had sent a separation notice a few months ago, but there has been no significant development since then.
Amid these speculations, an old statement by Sunita about extramarital affairs has resurfaced online. Known for her candid nature, Sunita has never shied away from expressing her opinions—whether about her husband’s stardom, his on-screen romances with top actresses, or even link-up rumours.
In a throwback interview with Hautterfly, Sunita shared a rather unfiltered take on extramarital affairs, offering a piece of blunt advice to women. She said, “Haath jod ke public mein bolti hoon, ladkio ko aur biwio ko—zindagi mein apne boyfriend aur husband ko yeh mat bolna, ‘Mera boyfriend yaa mera kuch karta nahi.’ Karega na toh itni buri tarah, sorry for my language, itna buri tarah hugta hai, itni buri jagah hugega na, nikalte-nikalte 2 saal lag jaayenge, lekin vo saali nikalegi nahi. Ap life se nikal jaoge, lekin nikalti nahi hai vo item.”
Meanwhile, Govinda has addressed the ongoing divorce rumours, but he chose to deflect the topic. When asked about the speculations, he simply stated, “These are only business talks going… I am in the process of starting my films.” However, his manager, Shashi Sinha, acknowledged that there have been issues between the couple. Sinha told ETimes, “There have been issues between them due to certain statements made by some family members. There is nothing more to it, and Govinda is in the process of starting a film. We are trying to resolve it.”
Adding fuel to the fire, last month, Sunita revealed that she and Govinda are not living together. She stated that while she resides in a flat with their children, the actor stays in a bungalow opposite their apartment. Sunita hinted at growing differences in their marriage, saying that while she once felt secure in their relationship, that feeling has faded over time.
