Vinay revealed that after hearing ongoing gossip, he finally gathered the courage to question Govinda about the alleged affair himself. Speaking about the incident, he recalled, “But I asked him once do you have an affair with someone? He told me, ‘No, there is nothing like that.’ When Govinda refused, I accepted it, but when I see mami’s (Sunita) interviews, I feel a bit weird, because we have seen her always respecting Govinda.”
