# Govinda’s manager denies second marriage claims, blames Sunita’s mind 2026-08-22T09:37:23+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets Govinda's manager Shashi Sinha has dismissed Sunita Ahuja's claim that the actor plans to marry co-star Komal Rani Swarnkar. Speaking to India Today, Sinha said there is no question of a second marriage and suggested Sunita's statements may be due to emotional distress. He noted that Govinda has never spoken against Sunita in public and expressed hope the couple will resolve their differences. Sunita Ahuja had told Rakhi Sawant that she withdrew her divorce petition because Govinda and Swarnkar were allegedly planning to marry. The couple married in 1987. Sunita filed for divorce in 2024 citing cruelty, adultery and desertion. She withdrew the petition from Bandra Family Court on August 19, 2025, accompanied by son Yashvardhan. Govinda was later spotted at a Juhu hospital but did not comment on the controversy. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Hindustan Times leads with the manager's denial, quoting his emotional-distress theory and the withdrawal of the divorce petition as evidence of goodwill, while Free Press Journal foregrounds Govinda's hospital sighting and his earlier angry response to Sunita, framing the story around the spectacle of a celebrity under pressure. The manager's denial is the only concrete rebuttal to Sunita's claim, but neither source reports independent corroboration. A careful reader should note that the second-marriage allegation rests entirely on Sunita's statement to Rakhi Sawant, which the manager dismisses without offering an alternative explanation for Sunita's motive to withdraw the petition after two years of pursuing it. What to watch: whether Sunita or Govinda make any further public statements, and if the family court accepts the withdrawal petition. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 1 neutral, 1 sensationalist - hindustantimes.com (neutral report) Leads with manager's denial, presents Sunita's claim as secondary, straight report with no editorial slant - freepressjournal.in (sensationalist) Leads with hospital sighting video and Govinda losing his cool, drama-first framing This story was synthesised by AI from the 2 sources linked above.
