In a recent interview with Miss Malini, Sunita Ahuja accused Govinda of not supporting her son Yashvardhan professionally. She said, “Yash is a self-made boy. He hasn't taken help from his father. As Govinda's son, he has given 90 auditions. He hasn't asked Govinda to call anyone. Govinda also never helped Yash. I told Govinda to his face, 'What are you, a father? If you don't help our children, who will?' Look at Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Sunil Shetty, Jackie Shroff, how they all support their sons. I told Govinda that he has to support his son, but I don't understand his thinking. The company he keeps is so bad, I don't know what they teach him. His own career is ruined.”
