The Story in Brief
Actor Govinda has said he was 'too innocent' until the age of 33 or 34, in an interview addressing cheating allegations made by his wife Sunita Ahuja. He told ANI that he regretted being so 'shareef' for so long. Using a Hindi analogy, he said: 'If you stay in a sweet shop and leave hungry, how tragic is that.' He added that from age 21 to 34 he simply did not understand what was happening around him.
Govinda claimed his on-screen chemistry with heroines was genuine love, not acting. He said his mother used to tell Sunita that because of her, he never even met other actresses and came straight home after pack-up. When asked if his behaviour changed after 34, Govinda said it was 'love, not cheating'. He also reacted to Raveena Tandon’s reported comment about marrying him, suggesting he was popular among many women.
The Indian Opinion
The usual narrative around Govinda’s interview is that he is excusing past infidelity or being slippery. In truth, he is merely describing his own journey, from being clueless in his 20s to later realising he missed opportunities. He does not deny the cheating allegations outright but reframes them as 'love'. The test now is whether his wife Sunita will clarify her earlier remarks, or whether this will remain another Bollywood he-said-she-said.
