Sunita Ahuja once said she shifted from miniskirts to sarees as Govinda’s mother wouldn’t like it.
Sunita Ahuja and Govinda’s divorce rumours have yet again surfaced online.
Govinda and Sunita Ahuja have yet again hit the headlines due to divorce rumours. While the couple has yet to issue an official statement, the actor’s lawyer has dismissed all separation rumours, stating that they, as a family, will ring in Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations together. Amid this, a throwback interview of Sunita Ahuja has resurfaced, in which she revealed that she went from wearing miniskirts to sarees back in the day as Govinda’s mother wouldn’t like it.
Sunita Ahuja revealed that her style and wardrobe underwent a complete transformation after marriage — and the reason behind it was none other than Govinda’s mother.
In a candid revelation on Timeout With Ankit, Sunita Ahuja shared how she shifted from a modern, western sense of fashion to a more traditional one to respect her mother-in-law’s wishes. “I went from wearing miniskirts to sarees. That’s why my husband used to hate me. I would tell him, ‘I’m from Bandra, you’re from Virar, boss.’ And he’d say, ‘No, my mother won’t like it,’” she recalled.
In yet another throwback interview, she credited her mother-in-law for her marriage to Govinda. Sunita shared, “Aaj maine har jagah yahi bola hai Govinda se mera joh shaadi hua hai woh sirf meri mother in law ke wajah se. Kyuki unhone Govinda ko bola tha ki mere sei 3 saal affair kia tha, phir bola mei abhi shadi karta hu, thodi der baad karta hu. Mummy ne pehle bola agar tune Sunita ko chodha tu bhikari ki zindagi jiyega. Woh achi ladki hai (Today I have said everywhere that my marriage with Govinda happened only because of my mother-in-law. She was the one who told Govinda that since he had been in a relationship with me for three years, he couldn’t keep delaying marriage — first saying he’d marry now, then later. My mother-in-law told him, ‘If you leave Sunita, you will end up living like a beggar. She is a good girl).”
She added, “Meri mother in law aur mei dono Gemini hai na.. meri tarah strong hai. Virar mei rehke baal bacho ko bada kia, she used to work, singing teach karte thei. Himmat wali thi. Woh puja karte thei aapko takat milta hai puja pat karne se (My mother-in-law and I are both Geminis… strong, just like me. Living in Virar, she raised her children while working — she used to teach singing. She was a woman of great courage. She performed puja, and doing puja gives you strength).”
Govinda and Sunita Ahuja got married in 1987. They are parents to two children – Tina and Yashvardhan Ahuja.
