Sunita Ahuja visits family court with son after making ‘sugar daddy’ claims against Govinda: ‘Birthday manane aaye hai’

Sunita Ahuja was spotted at Mumbai’s Bandra Family Court on Wednesday with her son Yashvardhan Ahuja and their advocate, adding to the growing public interest around the family’s personal life. Sunita and actor Govinda have been married for nearly four decades, but their relationship has been under the spotlight in recent years following her candid comments about their marriage.

On Wednesday afternoon, Sunita was seen wearing a striped shirt and trousers as she left the family court with Yashvardhan. Surrounded by paparazzi, she chose not to address questions about the reason for their visit.

Instead, staying true to her witty personality, she told the photographers, “Birthday manane aaye hai (I came to celebrate birthday)” before getting into her car. No further details about the family court visit have been revealed so far.

This visit to family court comes right after Sunita spoke openly about her relationship with Govinda and has made allegations about the actor’s personal life, including claims of extramarital affairs.

More recently, she reacted strongly after Govinda was spotted at an airport with Komal Rani Swarnkar . Referring to the two appearing together publicly for speculated promotions, she called Govinda a ‘sugar daddy’ and said, “The picture must be made first (laughs). Promotions occur after a film is made. But without promotions…now what can I say? He’s roaming with a girl his daughter’s age; he should be ashamed. He must have a standard. Your sugar daddy is so rich; at least dress properly. Look at us dressed so stylishly. Very bad, he’s lost his mind.”

Govinda later responded to Sunita’s remarks and asked her to be careful about the statements she makes publicly. Addressing her comments, he told a paparazzi, “Everyone is aware of the group and gang behind you, and they will soon come out in the open. You may need me in the future as well, so please stop making such statements and running this podcast to humiliate me. Please know your limits.”

Govinda and Sunita tied the knot in March 1987 and have been together for almost 40 years. The couple has two children: daughter Tina Ahuja, who was born in 1989, and son Yashvardhan, born in 1997.
