A New Chapter for Yashvardhan Ahuja
Sunita Ahuja has been in the news because her son, Yashvardhan, is preparing for his big film debut. She had mentioned that Yash is starting his career with a “better film” than “Saiyaara.” This comment was the spark for all the recent talk. Yashvardhan’s film is set to begin shooting next month. Sunita shared a sweet family tradition. When Govinda started his career, he began placing a Ganpati idol in his office. Now, with Yashvardhan’s film about to start, it was Yash who brought Ganpati home this year. Sunita hopes her son gets the same level of fame and respect as his father, Govinda.

Govinda’s Upcoming Project: ‘Duniyadaari’
Actor Govinda was also present with Sunita during these interactions. He offered his best wishes to Sunita and their children. Govinda proudly mentioned that Sunita recently started her vlog and it’s been very successful. He wishes continued success for her and their children. Govinda also gave a sneak peek into his own new film, “Duniyadaari.” He showed off a new mustache look for the role. He recalled having a similar look for his film “Naseeb” years ago, which didn’t do well. Now, he hopes this same look for “Duniyadaari” will bring him a fresh, successful start. He shared that filming for “Duniyadaari” hasn’t begun yet, but he promised to share updates once it does.
The Original ‘Saiyaara’ Comment Explained
To clear up any confusion, let’s look at the original comments made by Sunita Ahuja. She was on a podcast called “Eat Travel Repeat.” A fan asked why her handsome son, Yash, wasn’t cast in “Saiyaara.” Sunita responded, “I wish, but Yash is doing a better picture than that.” She admitted she hadn’t seen “Saiyaara” herself, but Yash had watched it twice. She planned to watch it when it became available on Netflix, possibly on the 14th. Sunita concluded her thoughts on the topic by saying, “It’s all good, and I wish all the new actors coming into the industry great success and fame.” Her intention was to express excitement for her son’s project, not to criticize Ahaan Panday or “Saiyaara.”
