Govinda is 'ruining his life' sitting at home, says wife Sunita Ahuja
Actor Govinda's wife, Sunita Ahuja, has spoken openly about the actor's long break from films and urged him to return to the big screen. In a recent interview, Sunita said that Govinda is a legendary actor and should not be wasting his time at home.'I always tell Govinda that you are a legend star, aap 90s ke raaja the (you were the 90s king). Today's generation of kids dance on your songs. I keep asking him to have better company. Why is a legend like you sitting at home? Actors of your age are doing so much work, including Anil Kapoor, Suniel Shetty, and Jackie Shroff. Why don't you work? We miss seeing Govinda in films," she told shared that even their children want to see Govinda act again. She blamed the people around him for not giving him the right advice. 'The company and friends you are hanging out with are not saying what's good for you, bas haan mein haan milaate hain (they always say yes to everything he says), they don't mean well for him. I want to say to these so-called friends of his - Govinda even helps you financially, why don't you show him the right path?" she added. She also said that Govinda needs to change with the times. '90s is gone, it's 2025. 90s ke style ki movie koi nahi dekh raha (no one is watching 90s-style movies). Uski zindagi barbaad kyu kar rahe ho do kaudi ke paison ke liye? (why are you guys ruining his life for little amount of money?) Tell him to lose weight or look handsome. We feel bad that such a legendary actor is sitting at home. Film industry mein actors ko apni waah-waahi sunna achha lagta hai, they don't want to listen to the truth. 90s mein wah-waahi thi, Govinda jaisa koi actor nahi hai (Actors in the film industry love to hear praise, they don't want to hear the truth. In the 90s, there was a lot of praise, there was no actor like Govinda), but he has to do good films and choose good directors. He is lacking there," she who was one of the biggest stars in Hindi cinema during the 90s and early 2000s, saw his fame decline after 2008. He tried to make a comeback with supporting roles in films like 'Raavan' and 'Kill Dil', but it didn't revive his career. He was last seen in the 2019 film 'Rangeela Raja', which failed at the box office.

Tell him to lose weight: Govinda's wife blames his friends for the Hero No. 1 sitting at home without work
Actor Govinda's wife, Sunita Ahuja, blamed his friends for not pushing him enough to resume his acting career, while his peers like Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff and Suniel Shetty still feature in prominent roles. Sunita said the veteran star was wasting away his life sitting at home. In an interview with Zoom, Sunita discussed Govinda's absence from the silver screen for over six years and shared that she has often asked him, 'Why?' often citing the examples of his peers. Sunita asked Govinda: 'Why is a legend like you sitting at home? Actors of your age are doing so much work, including Anil Kapoor, Suniel Shetty, and Jackie Shroff. Why don't you work?' Govinda, once among the most bankable stars in Hindi cinema during the 1990s and early 2000s, saw his stardom wane after 2008. He made attempts at a comeback, taking on supporting roles in films like Raavan and Kill Dil, but a true resurgence eluded him. His last on-screen appearance was in the 2019 box office flop Rangeela Raja. Blaming the company Govinda keeps for his Bollywood debacle, Sunita said that his friends are not telling him that the audience isn't watching 90s-style films anymore. 'Uski zindagi barbaad kyu kar rahe ho do kaudi ke paison ke lie? (Why are you ruining his life for some money?) Tell him to lose weight or look handsome,' she said. Govinda and Sunita tied the knot on 11 March 1987. The couple has two children, son Yashvardan Ahuja and daughter Tina Ahuja. Rumours of Sunita Ahuja and Govinda heading for a separation went viral on social media after the actor's wife revealed that they have been living in separate houses. The divorce rumours between the actor and his wife were fuelled further when she revealed that she has been spending her birthdays alone for the last 12 years. A post on Reddit also claimed that their divorce was a result of their strained relationship due to the actor's alleged extramarital affair with an unnamed young actress.

Sunita and Govinda first met when the actor was in the final year of his and Sunita was in the 9th grade. Sunita used to stay at her sister's house, who was married to Govinda's maternal uncle. The two had a rocky start, but it later blossomed into an affectionate bond. Govinda and Sunita tied the knot even before the actor became a well-known name in the industry. After marrying in 1986, the couple kept their relationship a secret for four years. They are now parents to two children, Yashvardhan Ahuja and Tina Ahuja. Their son is set to make his Bollywood debut soon.
