Corroboration: 2 independent outlets

Sunita Ahuja, wife of Bollywood actor Govinda, has claimed that her husband plans to marry his co-star Komal Rani Swarnkar. The Times of India reports that she earlier this year opened up about pain in their marriage, saying she had endured emotional pain but had found her own identity and strength. She stated that if Govinda changed and respected her expectations, she would forgive him, adding that their 40-year relationship could not end overnight. Hindustan Times reports that Sunita was spotted at Jaipur airport on a spiritual visit, avoiding media interaction. She had earlier been seen at a family court in Mumbai, where she told Rakhi Sawant that she withdrew her divorce petition because Govinda was planning to marry his co-star. Govinda's manager denied the claims, telling India Today there was no second marriage happening and that Sunita must have something on her mind.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

The Times of India article focuses on Sunita's emotional narrative from earlier in the year, framing her as a woman who has found strength after pain, while Hindustan Times leads with her latest airport sighting and the new allegation about a planned second marriage, giving weight to the manager's denial. Both sources present Sunita's claims without independent verification, but Hindustan Times includes a more detailed rebuttal from the manager, creating a balanced but unresolved tension. The measured read is that this is a continuing family dispute with conflicting accounts, and the next concrete step is Sunita's scheduled visit to Khatu Shyam Ji temple, which may or may not be followed by further legal or public moves.
