I Dropped Surname for Fame: Govinda’s Wife Amid Divorce Rumours
In a recent interview, Sunita Ahuja, the wife of popular Bollywood actor Govinda, revealed that she dropped his surname and added an extra ‘S’ to her first name to get “name and fame”. The statement has sparked curiosity and speculation among fans, with many asking if this change is a sign of trouble in the couple’s marriage. Amidst divorce rumours, Sunita has come forward to clarify the situation, stating that she is still a happy and content family woman.
Sunita, who was previously Sunita Rakesh Kumar, changed her name to Sussanne Khan after marrying Hrithik Roshan in 2000. However, after her divorce from the actor in 2014, she took her ex-husband’s surname and became Sussanne Khan once again. Now, with her marriage to Govinda, she has dropped his surname and adopted her original name with an extra ‘S’. While some might find this change surprising, Sunita has explained that it was a deliberate decision she made to get recognition in the film industry.
“I’m an Ahuja… that won’t change,” Sunita asserted in the interview. “The surname will only be dropped when I leave the world.” Her statement suggests that she has no plans to change her name back to Ahuja, and that this change is a permanent part of her identity.
When asked about the divorce rumours surrounding her marriage to Govinda, Sunita was quick to dispel the speculation. “We’re a happy family… don’t assume anything… until something comes directly from both of us,” she said. Her statement is a clear indication that any claims or reports of a rift in their marriage are unfounded and baseless.
Sunita’s decision to drop Govinda’s surname has sparked debate among fans, with some expressing surprise and others praising her for taking control of her identity. In a society where women often take on their husband’s surname as a symbol of their marital status, Sunita’s decision to retain her original name is a bold statement. By choosing to keep her surname, she is asserting her individuality and independence, and refusing to be defined solely by her marriage.
However, others have criticized Sunita for being selfish and attention-seeking. Some have argued that her decision to change her name is a publicity stunt, designed to generate buzz and attention in the media. While it is true that Sunita’s decision has generated a lot of attention, it is unfair to assume that she is doing it solely for publicity purposes.
In the end, Sunita’s decision to drop Govinda’s surname is a personal choice that reflects her desire for autonomy and recognition. While some may not agree with her decision, it is essential to respect her right to choose her own identity and assert her individuality.
