Veteran Bollywood actor Govinda and his wife Sunita
Ahuja, who have been married for nearly 38 years, are rumored to be
facing marital troubles. Reports suggest that the couple might be heading for a
separation, although no official confirmation has been made. Over the
years, they have been known for their strong bond, but recent
developments hint at tensions in their relationship.
Sunita Ahuja Confirms Living Separately
Earlier this year, in January 2025, Sunita Ahuja
spoke about her living arrangement in an interview with Pinkvilla’s
Hindi Rush. She revealed that while they own two houses, they
currently reside separately.
“We have two houses—a bungalow and an apartment. I
have my temple and my kids in the flat, so I stay there. Govinda, on the other
hand, gets home late after meetings. He loves socializing and often gathers
people around for conversations. Since I prefer a quieter space, I stay with my
children in the apartment,” Sunita had said.
Her statement raised speculation about a rift between
them, but she did not mention anything about a divorce at the time.
Rumors of Separation Intensify
Recently, a source informed ETimes that Sunita
had allegedly sent a separation notice to Govinda a few months ago.
However, there has been no progress regarding the matter since then.
Govinda’s manager, Shashi Sinha, addressed the
rumors, stating that differences between the couple had emerged due to statements
made by certain family members. He added that Govinda is currently focused
on his upcoming film projects and that efforts are being made to resolve
the situation.
Govinda’s Silence on the Issue
While Sunita has spoken about their living
situation, Govinda has chosen to stay silent. When questioned
about his personal life, the actor simply said that he is busy with his new
film.
Govinda and Sunita tied the knot on March 11, 1987,
and have been together through several ups and downs. They share two
children—daughter Tina Ahuja and son Yashvardan Ahuja.
Sunita’s Previous Statements on Their Relationship
In an earlier interview with Hauterrfly, Sunita spoke
about the challenges in their marriage, admitting that they had
experienced many difficulties over the past four decades. She
expressed that while their relationship had been through turbulent times, she
had endured it all.
Despite the rumors, neither Govinda nor Sunita has
officially confirmed a divorce. However, their separate living
arrangements and reports of a separation notice indicate that their
marriage might not be as stable as it once was.
What’s Next for Govinda and Sunita?
While fans remain curious about their relationship status,
the couple has not made any public statements confirming a separation or
divorce. Given Govinda’s focus on his career and Sunita’s hints
about their differences, only time will tell whether they will work
through their issues or officially part ways.
