Sunita Ahuja, wife of Bollywood actor Govinda, marked her 57th birthday with a spiritual visit to the Mahakal temple in Ujjain. Known for her simplicity and devotion, Sunita made a solo trip for her birthday puja, a tradition she continues every year. After offering prayers at the revered Kal Bhairav temple, she returned to Mumbai, where a sweet gesture at the airport won hearts.“I went alone and came back alone. Jai Mahakal”Upon her arrival at the Mumbai airport, Sunita was greeted by paparazzi who wished her a happy birthday. In a video shared online, she was seen handing out prasad (blessed food) to the photographers and smiling warmly. Speaking to them, she said, “Mei aap sab keliye prasad leke aayi hoo… Bahaut badiya poora hua, jaise hamesha mei bolti hoo apne birthday mei akele nikal jate hoo, akele gayi, aur akele hee vapas agayi. Jai Mahakal, ye ap log keliye prasad.”Sunita on Govinda’s career and inner circleIn a recent conversation with The Powerful Humans, Sunita opened up about the ongoing silence around Govinda’s film career. She candidly shared that his career has been impacted by his reluctance to adapt and by the influence of a non-critical inner circle.“People around him just praise him blindly, no one tells him the truth. When I do, he gets upset,” she remarked.Past health scare and relationship rumoursLast year, Govinda made headlines after accidentally shooting himself in the leg with his own revolver.

However, reports later emerged about the couple living separately due to personal reasons.For the unversed, the couple got married in 1987 and have two children—Tina and Yashvardhan Ahuja.
