Mumbai: Govinda’s team has rubbished reports of a report in Hauterrfly suggesting that the actor’s wife Sunita Ahuja has filed a divorce case on grounds of cruelty and cheating.
A source told Hindustan Times that while there are differences between the couple, but they have not filed any divorce case.
“Even though things might look difficult as of now, but there is no divorce happening. Log purane mudde phir samne lane ki koshish kar rahe hain, aisa kuch nahin ho raha hai. (People are trying to dig up the past, but there is nothing as such.)”
Govinda’s manager Shashi told HT City: “Har couple mein thode bahaut mann mutav toh hote hi rehte hain. Yeh sab purani batein hai, jinhe ab mirch masala laga kar apne fayde ke liye log aur media istemal karne ki koshish kar rahe hain. (There are fights between every couple. Some people and media personnel are trying to pull up things which have happened in the past for their own benefit.)”
Asked about reports stating that Sunita had filed the divorce case under Section 13 (1) (i), (ia), (ib) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 in December, last year, Shashi said, “Govinda jaisa insaan kisi par haath nahin utha sakta, chilla nahin sakta toh yeh cruelty jaise claims aa kaha se rahe hain. I have worked closely with him aur woh insan bilkul aisa nahin hai jaisi image unki ab banai jaa rahi hai. Yeh sab mudde past ki kahaniya hai jinn par dono miya biwi- sath mein kaam bhi kar rahe hai. (A person like Govinda can never hit anyone, neither can he shout at anyone, then how can someone file a cruelty case against him? I have worked very closely with him and he is not that kind of person. People are making a different image of him. These things have happened in the past and both husband and wife are working on it.)”
Shashi said Govinda’s personal life has being unfairly targeted.
“Haan, Govinda court mein pesh (present) nahin hue par Sunita bhi court nahin gaye hain, siwae ek baar ke jab woh case file karne ke liye gaye thi. Kis couple mein problems nahin hoti. Sunita, Govinda se bahut pyaar karti hain, aur dono sath hain. Koi divorce nahi hone waala hai. They are focusing on their kids’ (Tina Ahuja and Yashvardan Ahuja) career-marriages, instead of this negativity. (Govinda has never appeared before the court, nor did Sunita. She has gone to the court only to file the case. Which couple doesn’t fight? Sunita loves Govinda a lot. There is no divorce happening.)”
“Yeh bade bade section laga lene se, chhoti baat ko itna bada karke dikha dene se aap bas ek rishta kharab kar rahe hain. Views ke chakkar mein, aap kisi ki bhi zindagi kharab kar denge kya? Kya kabhi kisi ne itne saalon mein Govinda ko Sunita ke baare mein kuch bhi bura bhala kehte dekha hai, even when Sunita ne kuch interviews mein thodi bahut baatein Govinda ke khilaf ya galat boli hai? Abhi Ganesh Chaturthi aayega, aapko sab saath mein nazar aayenge, aap ghar aaiyega. (By reporting about the sections under which the case has been filed, people are just ruining a happy marriage. You will be ruining someone’s life just for the sake of TRPs. Has anyone ever heard Govinda talking ill about Sunita even though she has spoken against him in some interviews. On the festival of Ganesh Chathurthi, the whole family will come together. You too come to their house),” he concluded.
