Over the last few years, Govinda and Sunita Ahuja have been at the center of various rumors, including claims of a possible divorce and reports of the actor's alleged affair. Their daughter Tina Ahuja recently reacted to these speculations while discussing her professional journey.
Tina Ahuja Says Casting Directors Made Assumptions About Her Being a Star Kid
In an interview with Free Press Journal, Tina addressed why she hasn't been seen more often on the big screen despite her strong screen presence. She revealed that industry insiders often made assumptions about her being unwilling to audition due to her background. Tina said, “I will tell you why. Casting directors and filmmakers need to understand that I am open to look tests, and I'm open to giving auditions. I think a lot of people had stories in their head that she is a star kid, so she will never give a look test. They pre-assumed things. I was always open to giving look tests and auditions. If I get something good, then why won't I do it? I would love to be a part of a nice OTT fiction show. A nice movie. They had so many pre-assumptions. People think that she's the daughter of such a big star; why would she come and do an audition? Why would she come and do a look test? But why wouldn't I do it? Even in Hollywood, superstars are going and doing look tests.”
Tina Ahuja Opens Up on How Rumors About Govinda and Sunita Ahuja Have Affected Her
When asked about the constant rumors surrounding her family, and whether the never-ending chatter about Sunita and Govinda on social media takes a toll on her, Tina opened up candidly. She admitted that this has been a lifelong reality for her, not something new. She shared, “I've been seeing this since my childhood. There were stories. Every decade, they have a new story. Earlier, it used to be magazines. Then it came to the internet, and now it's come to Instagram and the YouTube world. See, I'm human. Obviously, you get kind of troubled when there's no truth to it, and when it just feels very exaggerated and dragged. Clickbait is taken from somewhere, and another story is created. I'm not some saint who will never get affected. It is disturbing, yes. But then you have to learn to have a thicker skin in this industry or any industry in life. When you know the truth and when you know the foundation, then it's better not to react or let it affect you or your health.”
