Corroboration: 2 independent outlets

Sunita Ahuja visited Mumbai’s Bandra Family Court on Wednesday with her son Yashvardhan and an advocate. She did not explain the visit, telling photographers, “Birthday manane aaye hai.” Govinda’s manager, Shashi Sinha, later said Sunita had withdrawn her divorce petition and that the couple were fine. She had reportedly filed the case in December 2024 under the Hindu Marriage Act, citing adultery, cruelty and desertion. Hindustan Times reports that the visit followed Sunita’s public comments about Govinda, including calling him a “sugar daddy” after he was seen with Komal Rani Swarnkar. Govinda urged her to stop making such statements. The Times of India reports on an old interview in which Govinda recalled his mother warning him not to betray or leave Sunita. The couple married in March 1987 and have two children.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Both reports accept the manager’s account that the divorce case was withdrawn, but neither supplies a court record or explains whether any legal reconciliation step followed. Hindustan Times gives more space to the couple’s recent public remarks and Govinda’s response, framing the court visit within an ongoing dispute. The Times of India shifts attention to a sentimental old interview and Govinda’s mother’s advice, while repeating the manager’s clarification. The measured reading is that the withdrawal is confirmed by a representative, but the couple’s private circumstances remain unclear. Any further court filing or statement from Sunita or Govinda will matter more than paparazzi remarks or resurfaced clips.
