Govinda, Sunita reveal the reason they hid their marriage
On being asked when they got married and why did they keep their wedding a secret? Sunita said, “We got married in 1987 and at that time he was on peak of his career. During that time it was that if a hero tied the knot his fan following drastically drops. Girls think that, oh he is a married man now so useless to follow him.“
She added, “So I told him that sign as many films as you can in a year we will live quietly. But once my daughter was born Tina then we declared on her first birthday that we are married. So for a year we kept our marriage a secret, I used to hide in my room so that no one should see me. See in love you do such things.”
They also shared a funny anecdote of how a rich girl worked in their home as a servant just to be close to the actor.
Govinda said, “She was standing outside quite good looking so I asked her do you need a job go and ask my mother as she handles all this. She went to ask my mom and she hired her. By evening she used to be tired, but the moment I reach home she used to get up and bring water and all for me. Then Sunita suspected that things are not what they seem.”
Sunita added, “I heard her talking to someone, she was talking to her father. I snatched the phone and spoke to her father and realised that she is from a rich family she had eight cars. She was a big fan of Govinda and only wanted to just be with him. Therefore she worked in our house. “
