Sunita Ahuja reveals why she converted to Christianity when she was in school
Recently, Sunita Ahuja appeared on the podcast show, Timeout With Ankit. During her conversation, she shared several interesting anecdotes from her childhood, her love story with Govinda, and life after marriage. She recalled one interesting incident and revealed that she had studied in a Christian school and one day secretly converted to Christianity without informing her parents. The star’s wife said that she took the decision so that she could have some wine. She was quoted as saying:
“I was born in Bandra. I’ve been baptised. I was in a Christian school, and all my friends were Christians. As a child, I had heard that Jesus’ blood is wine. And I thought to myself, ‘Wine means alcohol’. I was always very cunning. There’s no harm in having a drink, is there? Just to have some wine, I got myself baptised.”
Sunita added that she still follows Christianity and attends Church on Saturday. She was later asked if her parents were angry over her decision. But Sunita mentioned that they never learned about it. Moreover, she shared that she even visits dargahs, gurudwaras, and temples.
Sunita Ahuja recalled that Govinda hated her wearing miniskirts
In the same interview, Sunita recalled the cultural differences between her and Govinda. She revealed she was from Bandra, a more modern area back in time. While Govinda lived in Virar. So, he used to dislike her wearing miniskirts and said that his mother wouldn’t like it either. For this reason, she began to wear sarees for his mother. In her words:
“I went from wearing miniskirts to sarees. That’s why my husband used to hate me. I would tell him, ‘I’m from Bandra, you’re from Virar, boss.’ And he’d say, ‘No, my mother won’t like it.'”
