Vinay Anand Breaks Silence on Govinda-Sunita Split Rumors

New Delhi, january 20, 2026: Bollywood’s “Hero No. 1,” Govinda, has recently been the center of intense media scrutiny following persistent rumors of a rift with his wife of 38 years, Sunita Ahuja. Amidst whispers of separation and alleged infidelity, Govinda’s nephew and Bhojpuri actor Vinay Anand has finally broken his silence, offering a heartfelt plea for family unity and privacy.+1

A Family Divided by Rumors

The speculation began escalating in early 2026 after Sunita Ahuja made several candid remarks in interviews and vlogs. She hinted at emotional distance, revealing that while they reside in the same building complex, they often live in separate homes due to Govinda’s late-night meetings and different lifestyles. More shockingly, Sunita addressed rumors of Govinda’s alleged proximity to a woman named “Komal,” stating, “If I get confirmation, I will never forgive him.”+2

Vinay Anand Steps In

In an exclusive conversation with IANS, Vinay Anand expressed his distress over the public unfolding of his “Mama” (uncle) and “Mami’s” (aunt) personal lives. Vinay, who has always viewed Sunita as a mother figure, emphasized the need for the relationship to remain private.

“I sincerely pray that my Mama and Mami’s relationship always remains strong and private. That is my only wish,” Vinay stated.

Addressing the “Father-Son” Friction

One of the most sensitive points Sunita raised recently was Govinda’s lack of support for their son, Yashvardhan Ahuja’s, fledgling acting career. Sunita expressed her disappointment, questioning why Govinda wasn’t helping his own blood enter the industry.+1

Responding to this, Vinay took a balanced but firm stance. He mentioned that while no father would want to see their son struggle, he respects Sunita’s feelings as a mother. He noted:

• “I would gently tell my Mama to pay attention”: Vinay suggested that if Sunita is feeling neglected or hurt regarding their son’s career, Govinda should listen to her concerns.
• Support for Yashvardhan: Vinay praised Yashvardhan’s talent, calling him “extremely talented” and like a son to him, praying for his big break in Bollywood.

Govinda’s Response: “A Big Conspiracy”

Govinda, for his part, has dismissed the divorce rumors as a “big conspiracy.” He recently broke his silence to ANI, alleging that his family is being “unknowingly used” by external forces to tarnish his reputation. He suggested that keeping quiet for too long made him appear “weak” and that the current narrative is an attempt to isolate him from his work and market.+2

The Road Ahead

Despite the headlines, the family remains hopeful. While Sunita’s “100% upset” status is clear from her recent interviews, the couple has also made public appearances together at festivals like Ganesh Chaturthi to dispel split rumors. For now, Vinay Anand’s intervention serves as a reminder that behind the “superstar” tag is a family trying to navigate decades of complex emotions under the relentless glare of the spotlight.
