Govinda has finally addressed the allegations of extramarital affairs made against him by his wife Sunita Ahuja. He called out her tendency to speak negatively about him in public while also acknowledging her role in raising their family. The actor shared that she abuses him affectionately.
Govinda says Sunita Ahuja abuses him ‘pyaar se’
Speaking to ANI, Govinda admitted that while Sunita Ahuja has made such claims in the past, he credits her for raising the children in their household. He said, “Itne pyaar se gali deti hai mujhe aur main khata bhi hoon unke haath se (She affectionately hurls abuses at me, and I just take it in stride). I feel that wherever people are and whatever roles the Almighty has assigned them—the specific niche they occupy—we wouldn’t have achieved success without them being there. We simply wouldn’t be who we are. She has a rightful claim over the many children in our family who have now grown up. She was also kind to them.”

Govinda also hinted that Sunita has received significant public attention after speaking about him openly. He said, “There are many things that remain unexpressed—things that can never be put into words. If I were to offer just a glimpse of these matters from the outside, would there really be a need to cast aspersions to create a distance? People often view that as an escape. Is it essential to bad-mouth your own people to gain success? That is a bit easy. Sunita does it tactfully. She offers four words of praise, or perhaps the praise comes naturally, and then voice a criticism. I see more love in that.”

Sunita, who was recently a contestant on ‘Lock Upp 2’, spoke about Govinda’s alleged affairs during her time on the show. She said, “In love, you should be able to tolerate everything. Chi Chi had so many affairs in his life; well, heroes and heroines do have such things. I think that after standing by Chi Chi for so many years, I deserve to have a son like him.”
