In Short

  • Ssunita Ahuja said she did not want to comment on Govinda or his co-star
  • She said he should live life in whatever way he chooses
  • Ssunita's reaction came amid Govinda's link-up with co-actor Rani Swarnkar

Ssunita Ahuja has reacted to actor Govinda’s alleged relationship with co-star Rani Swarnkar as controversy surrounding their personal life continues to escalate. The development follows Govinda and Rani’s recent joint visit to Lalbaugcha Raja and subsequent public claims made by the latter.

Speaking to Sarish Media, Ssunita said, "Govinda ke baare mein, na uske co-star ke baare mein kuch nahi bolna hai. I am seeing he is happy; God bless him. Jaisi usko zindagi jeena hai, woh jeeye (I have nothing to say about Govinda or his co-star. I can see he is happy; God bless him. He should live his life however he wishes to)."

Ssunita highlighted that she would rather stay away from the speculation and focus on her own life.

She added, "Kyunki mujhe yeh sab par focus nahi karna hai. I just pray to God ki woh jahan bhi hai, jiske saath bhi hai, khush hai aur khush rahe (Because I do not wish to focus on any of this. I simply pray to God that wherever he is and whomever he is with, he is happy and continues to stay happy)."

Speculation regarding Govinda and Ssunita Ahuja’s personal life has intensified over recent weeks following the actor's public appearances alongside his co-star, Rani Swarnkar. The controversy gained momentum during the festive season when Govinda and Rani made a joint visit to offer prayers at Mumbai’s Lalbaugcha Raja — a visit that notably occurred shortly after Ssunita had visited the shrine separately.

Adding fuel to the rumours, Rani Swarnkar subsequently made a series of sharp public remarks across media interactions. Without explicitly naming Ssunita, Rani claimed she was being unfairly targeted, making a sensational statement that women conspiring or plotting against their own husbands had no standing to question others. She further asserted that her bond with Govinda remained unshakable despite external scrutiny — claims that triggered widespread debate across entertainment portals.

While these statements sparked intense online speculation, both Govinda and Ssunita had initially maintained silence on the matter. Married for over 36 years, the couple has periodically faced public scrutiny, with Ssunita previously opting to distance herself from media chatter to protect family privacy.
