Govinda Accepts Sunita Ahuja's Cheating Claims with 'Mithai Shop' Remark
Govinda is a very famous movie star in India.
His wife, Sunita, said that many years ago he had a secret romance with an actress he acted with.
Govinda now says that what she said is true.
He made a funny comparison to a sweet shop.
He said it would be sad to sit inside a sweet shop and come out hungry.
He meant that he was very well-behaved when he was young.
Govinda thanked Sunita for staying with him and helping his career.
He also said his mother told him to always smile and be happy.
He says Sunita scolds him, but she does it with love.
The family remains together.
Govinda accepted wife Sunita Ahuja's claims that he had an affair with a co-star in the 1990s, saying it is sad to leave a sweet shop hungry.
He admitted he was 'so innocent' from age 21 until 34, and said a man indulges in 'foxery' that he later regrets.
Govinda credited Sunita for his successful career and the upbringing of their children, Harshvardhan and Tina Ahuja.
He confirmed that co-star Raveena Tandon once said she would marry him if he were not already married.
He recalled late mother Nirmala Devi's advice to keep smiling and said his bond with every heroine was one of love.
