Suneet was asked if he had traveled with Govinda when he went abroad for a film shoot. Regarding this he said, “Tina (his daughter) was very young and her school had started. So, I could hardly go.” Did he ever feel proud of Govinda? To this question, he said, “I don’t have the sense to feel proud. I was only 20-21 years old. You know how life was then. No. Today’s kids understand all that, but we were too naive.”
The marriage was kept secret
When Govinda and Sunita got married, the world didn’t know about it at all. In fact, both kept their marriage a secret for two years. Apart from Tina, they also have a son named Yashvardhan Ahuja.
However, let us now know how Govinda and Sunita first met. Govinda himself told about this in an interview given to Bollywood Bubble in the year 2023. He said, “She was so young, I was afraid that people would call it harassment if they started falling in love at that age. She was 15 and I was 21. So we were very young.”
Govinda further stated that he told Sunita, “‘You are very young, I know what you are talking about.’ So he said, ‘Yes, I know everything and I want you…I love you.’ I thought this was too young, man. I was afraid that if I date her, someone will call me a child molester. At the time of marriage, Govinda was 18 years old.
