Govinda's wife Sunita Ahuja calls him out for not working, refusing to lose weight, and living in the past while fans still miss him on screen.
Govinda, one of Bollywood's most beloved stars, has been missing from the big screen for quite some time now. While fans eagerly await his return, his wife Sunita Ahuja has spoken about the reasons behind his absence, and she isn't holding back.
In a recent chat with Instant Bollywood, Sunita revealed that while she rarely fights with Govinda, she does get upset about one particular issue—his lack of work. 'I never fight with Govinda about anything, only about one thing. Go work. The public is missing you," she said bluntly.
Sunita shared that while the actor is now considering producing his own films, she's not entirely on board with his vision. 'He is now thinking of making his own films. But I don't want him to make movies like the 90s. That era is over. Today's subjects… you see where cinema is going today. I want him to watch Netflix, OTT, and see what's trending."
She didn't hold back while talking about his health either. 'I tell him to lose weight. He should lose at least 20 kilos," she said, recalling how Govinda once promised to return with a physique like Sylvester Stallone's. 'I told him, I don't think that's happening in this lifetime, and in the next life, I don't want you as my husband. I want you as my son."
Sunita also blamed those in Govinda's inner circle for his career stagnation. 'You're wasting your time because of the Yes-men around you. They aren't teaching you good things," she said, adding that he continues to surround himself with the wrong kind of people—unknown music directors and writers—and refuses to adapt to modern-day filmmaking.
'He gets angry that I speak the truth to his face," she concluded. 'But you are not giving me money, so why should I flatter you? I am not here to flatter anyone."
