Mumbai, February 10

Veteran actor Govinda spoke about backing his son Yashvardhan Ahuja's career in films, expressing confidence in his acting abilities and highlighting his strong technical understanding of the craft.

Expressing his belief in his son's potential, Govinda told ANI, "Yash mujhse behtar actor banega. Wo technically mujhse zyada strong hai..he is huge" (Yash will become a better actor than me. He is technically stronger than me).

Speaking about supporting his son Yashvardhan's journey in films, the ace star added,"Mere kehne par Sajid Nadiadwala ne usko cabin diya so that he can learn different aspects of filmmaking..."

Responding to questions over his wife, Sunita Ahuja's claims, he said, "... I left politics for my family as I did not want political life hamper my family life and have an adverse effect on my children..."

Govinda added that he prefers not to dwell on personal allegations, stating, "I do not want to discuss this topic further. Even answering it feels disrespectful."

The 'Dulhe Raja' actor also spoke on his wife's film debut saying, "To acha hai..ghar par rahengi zyada interviews dengi..."

Earlier, he responded to recent claims by his wife, Sunita, firmly dismissing allegations of an extramarital affair and spoke about his dedication to his work and professional conduct in the film industry. Govinda said, "I have worked with four superstars, Miss Universe heroine. I have never looked at them. Ek meri heroine aesa nahi keh sakti ki maine tangh kiya ho ya kisi ke liya apshabd keh diya ho.. Meri jo films chali hai for that I am thankful to my directors, songs and heroines in the films...I never misbehave with any heroines. Now she is taking the name....I don't like such words. Isiliye mai shama maangta hu meri jo newcomers hai unse taki mai cha raha hu sabke saath kaam karu..kahi dar na jaaye ki iske saath kaise kaam karna hai iske production mein kaam hi nahi karenge (I apologize. My newcomers, I want to work with them. I don't want to be afraid)."

Govinda and Sunita, who have been married since 1987, are proud parents to Tina and Yashvardhan. While Tina made her Bollywood debut in 2015 with 'Second Hand Husband', Yashvardhan is preparing for his acting debut soon.

The family drama is getting too public. First the wife's interviews, now his. It's sad to see a legendary actor's personal life play out like a daily soap. I wish them peace and hope Yashvardhan's career isn't overshadowed by all this.

Govinda is a comedy king, no one can replace him. Saying his son will be better is just parental love talking. Let's see if Yashvardhan has even 10% of the comic timing and dance skills. The bar is very high!

Interesting to see the focus on "technical" strength. Maybe the new generation is more studied in the craft, but Govinda's era had raw, infectious talent. Hope Yashvardhan gets good scripts and isn't just another star kid launch.

The part about him leaving politics for his family is very relatable. Many Indian men face that tension between public life and family peace. Respect for that decision. Now hoping for a hit from Govinda himself soon, we miss him on screen!

His statement about never misbehaving with heroines and apologizing to newcomers is a class act. In today's climate, that professionalism needs to be highlighted. Wishing the Ahuja family all the best. Yashvardhan has big shoes to fill, but with his father's guidance, he might just do it.
