Bollywood actor Govinda has been away from films for quite some time now. In a recent interview with Instant Bollywood, the actor’s wife Sunita Ahuja revealed how she has urged Govinda to lose weight and return to work.
She also recalled how years ago Govinda had promised her that he would become like her favourite actor Sylvester Stallone.
When asked about her arguments with Govinda and if Govinda ever got scared of her voice, Sunita said, “I have never had a fight with Govinda on any matter except one thing – that he should start working again, the public is missing him.
I keep telling him to lose weight, he should lose at least 20 kilos. About 6-7 years ago, he told me, ‘I will become like Sylvester Stallone’, because Stallone is my favourite actor. I said that it is not like a janam mein toh lagta nahi hai aur agle janam mein mujhe tu pati nahi beta sajdi sajdi.” Sunita said, “He is neither losing weight nor doing films. I tell him you are such a good actor but you are wasting your time because of those four people you are sitting with.
They are not teaching you good things – only nonsense. Sit with good people and do good work. Now the atmosphere of the 90s is over. But those four people will not say anything to him – only flatter him.” Sunita Ahuja and Govinda’s relationship Sunita and Govinda were married even before Govinda became a Bollywood superstar.
The couple kept their marriage a secret, acknowledging it publicly only after the birth of their daughter Tina. They have been married for almost 38 years and also have a son, Yashvardhan Ahuja, who is soon going to make his Bollywood debut in Sai Rajesh’s film.
