Govinda’s wife Sunita Ahuja opens up about infidelity in marriages: ‘The other woman’s stench won’t leave him for years’
Govinda's wife Sunita Ahuja said that regularly abuse each other verbally, and that their relationship has seen many ups and downs over the last four decades.

Govinda and his wife, Sunita Ahuja, have been married for almost 40 years now, and in a recent interview, Sunita said that to this day, they sometimes verbally abuse each other while having conversations. She also added that they use Hindi words like ‘Abbe‘ while addressing each other. Sunita also mentioned that women should not brag about their husbands being faithful to them, because once they start cheating, it would be impossible to get rid of the other woman.
In a chat with Hauterrfly, Sunita said, “I still don’t feel like we are husband and wife. I still address him as ‘Abbe‘ and he also addresses me the same way. That’s how we talk to each other.” She then mentioned that “gali-galoch” is a part of their verbal exchanges, and then added, “I sometimes ask him ‘are you my husband? I still can’t believe you are my husband.”
Sunita then spoke about men cheating on their wives and said, “I would like to fold my hands and tell women that don’t ever say that your partner is innocent (doesn’t cheat). If he does it, it will become so bad and no matter how hard you try to get rid of her, she won’t leave him for years. Even if you leave him, that woman won’t.”
Sunita was then asked about her relationship being tested during tough times, and she said that they went through many ups and downs in the 40 years they have been together. “Now, it has been 40 years. When it happened, then I endured it,” she said. Her daughter Tina, who was also sitting next to her, added, “My mom is an intense lover. She has intense love for my Dad.” “If you love, love with all your heart, otherwise, they can go to hell. If the other person doesn’t reciprocate, you should walk the other way,” Sunita added. Govinda and Sunita got married in 1987. They are parents to son Yashvardan Ahuja and Sunita Ahuja.
In an 1990 interview with Stardust, Govinda declared that he once ended his relationship with Sunita, while they were still engaged to each other because he wanted to be with film actor Neelam. I asked Sunita to leave me. I broke off my engagement with her. And had Sunita not called me after five days and coaxed me into it again, I would probably have married Neelam,” he said and added, “I wanted to marry her. And I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that.”
