Govinda, who marked his acting debut in 1986, secretly married his now wife Sunita Ahuja in 1987. The very next year, they welcomed their daughter Tina and after nearly a decade, the couple welcomed their son Yashvardhan. In a recent interview, Sunita recalled the birth of her son and how she had told the doctor to save her son instead of her when she saw Govinda howling.

Talking to the YouTube channel Eat Travel Repeat, Sunita was asked to share a real-life filmy moment from her life, when she quickly recalled the birth of her son. Sunita shared, “When I was delivering my son Yash, I was 100 kgs. I had gained a lot of weight. I thought I will die. Looking at me, Chi Chi (Govinda) started to cry. During those days, sex detection test was legal. We knew we were having a son. I dramatically told the doctor, ‘Doctor, my husband wants a son. Please save the child, it is okay if I die in the process.’ This made Govinda cry even more. He was howling. This was extremely filmy moment for all of us.” She laughed as she recalled the moment.

On Friday, Hautterfly reported Sunita Ahuja has filed for divorce in the Bandra Family Court, and the couple is currently undergoing court mandated relationship counselling. However, Govinda’s lawyer, Lalit Bindra told NDTV that it is an old matter, which has been settled between the couple.

Their divorce rumours started to surface online after Sunita in several of her interviews hinted at Govinda’s infidelity and implied that they live separately. In one of her interviews, she also mentioned that for the past 12 years, she has been celebrating her birthday all by herself. In another incident, she was seen spending Valentine’s Day with her son Yash. In a casual conversation with the photographers, she joked, “Govinda apne Valentine ke sath gaya hai (Govinda has gone with his valentine).”
