Sunita Ahuja: After 38 Years, Divorce Rumours With Govinda?

Sunita Ahuja & Govinda’s divorce reports: read about the inspiring love story of Sunita Ahuja and Govinda- their love, struggles, hardships, and everything in between.

Sunita’s background and role in Govinda’s life

Born into a Punjabi family in 1967, Sunita, then known as Sunita Munjal, had an upbringing that balanced modernity with tradition. She was born in Bandra and had been baptised when she began attending school, where all her friends were Christians. She was raised half Nepali and half Punjabi. However, no one knew about her baptism, as she wanted to sample the alcohol, having heard that others would be served wine during Mass. She added that she visits different places of worship and observes a number of fasts.

One of Bollywood’s most popular love stories is her 1987 marriage to Govinda. She has had a significant influence on Govinda’s personal and professional lives despite her lack of public exposure.

Their love story and their journey to parenthood

Sunita and Govinda’s love story feels like it’s straight out of a Bollywood movie. As if it was meant to be. It all started when Sunita first saw Govinda at her elder sister’s wedding to Anand Singh, Govinda’s maternal uncle. At the time, Sunita was in the 9th standard while Govinda was in the final year of his undergraduate (B.Com) degree. It was Anand who later introduced them. Sunita visited her sister and jiju often, where she would meet with Govinda.

As destiny would have it, he stayed with his uncle for 3 years, in the early years of his career, when he was struggling, giving them frequent opportunities to meet. Sunita was a lively young lady from a prosperous Punjabi-Sindhi family, and Govinda was a budding actor. Govinda was modest and firmly rooted in his traditions, while Sunita was bold and forward-thinking.

They were attracted to each other right away, despite their differences. Since texting was not an option back in the day, their romance blossomed over phone conversations and letters. However, it wasn’t always hearts and roses; they had their fair share of ups and downs, including occasional arguments and even a short split. The Universe had other plans. When they finally got married in 1987, they kept it under wraps to not let it interfere with Govinda’s promising acting career in Bollywood. Sunita was just 18 and Govinda was 24 at the time, and the couple welcomed their baby daughter Narmmadaa or Tina (@tina.ahuja) the following year.

Their journey to becoming parents was filled with both joy and heartbreak. After welcoming their daughter Tina in 1989, they conceived again, but unfortunately, their second baby girl was born prematurely, not giving her lungs a chance to fully develop; as a result, she couldn’t survive beyond 3 months. God graced them with a chance to be parents once again, years later, when Yashvardhan (@ahuja_yashvardhan) was born 8 years after the birth of Tina in 1997, bringing renewed joy to their lives.

The love between the couple goes beyond the fame of movies and is built on trust, togetherness, and faith in each other.

Sunita, once in an interview with Eat Travel Repeat, quoted “Usko bhook kab lagta hai mujhe yeh bhi pata hai. Ki abhi isko coke kab chahiye mujhe yeh bhi pata hai. Usko acidity kab ho raha hai mujhe yeh bhi pata hai. Mere jitna Govinda ko koi nahi jaanega, aur kabhi zindagi mein nahi jaanega koi. Kyunki andar se pyaar karti hun naa usko. Jitna bhi koi karle pyaar, kuchh bhi karle, but mera andar ka pyaar hai. Woh, mere jaisa Govinda ko koi nahi pyaar kar sakta hai, naa koi usko itna samajh sakta hai.”

This goes to show the depth of the bond they share and how profound her love for her husband is. She has stood by him through every challenge, proving that true love stands the tests of time and endures all hardships.
