What the lawyer said
Govinda's lawyer revealed that the couple had indeed filed for divorce six months back but later reconciled. "We also travelled to Nepal during the New Year and performed puja together at Pashupatinath Mandir. Everything is fine between them now. Such things keep happening between couples, but they are going strong and will always be together," Lalit Bindal told India Today.
What Sunita said
A video of Sunita talking about why they chose to live separately surfaced after their divorce news. The star wife said that ever since Govinda joined politics, many workers keep coming to their house. As their young daughter keeps roaming around in the house, they preferred that the Partner actor shift his work to the adjacent building.
"Humko, mereko aur Govinda ko, iss duniya mein agar koi alag kar de, kisi ka mai ka laal toh saamne aa jaye (If anyone dares to separate Govinda and myself, let them come forward)," Sunita said in the video.
