Actress Poonam Pandey has publicly defended Govinda after his wife Sunita Ahuja accused him of having an affair with Komal Rani Swarnkar. Speaking at an event, Pandey said, 'Itne achche pati dev mile hai, tumko Govinda mila hai,' and said she would support him 100 percent. Times of India reports that Pandey dismissed Ahuja's claim that Govinda was seen with another woman, calling it 'ridiculous'.

Sunita Ahuja was spotted at a family court in Mumbai on Wednesday with son Yashvardhan, sparking divorce speculation. However, Govinda's manager Shashi Sinha confirmed to NDTV and Hindustan Times that Ahuja had withdrawn the divorce petition she had filed earlier. Sinha questioned why the case was filed if it was to be withdrawn, saying, 'Kahe ko phir tamaasha hum log ban gaye?' He added that Govinda has no reaction.
An old interview of Govinda has resurfaced where he recalled his mother's warning: 'Agar tune isse dhokha diya toh tu bheekh mangega.' His mother called Sunita the 'Laxmi' of their house. The couple married in March 1987.
All three sources report the same facts: Sunita Ahuja withdrew her divorce petition and Poonam Pandey defended Govinda. The coverage is uniformly neutral, with each outlet leading with the withdrawal news and quoting the manager's expression of regret. Times of India adds Pandey's defence, while NDTV and Hindustan Times focus on the manager's question about why the matter became public. The middle ground is that while the legal step is resolved, the public airing of grievances has left reputational questions that the manager's statement does not fully address. The key next step is whether Govinda or Sunita issue a personal statement.
