Govinda and Sunita Ahuja's troubled marriage has often made news due to the latter's comments and cheating allegations on her husband. Now, the actor has made shocking claims about Karan Johar's film Govinda Naam Mera, which revolves around the theme of marital infedelity, alleging that it was based on his life.

In an interview with ANI, Govinda claimed that Karan Johar's Govinda Naam Mera is based on his troubled marriage with Sunita and even threatened that if he ever crosses paths with the filmmaker, he will give him the 'Rajinikanth treatment', presumably indicating the way the superstar beats up goons in films.

"Someone made a film on my name, Govinda Naam Mera. I think it was Karan Johar. In the story, the husband and the wife get into a quarrel because of the girlfriend. They start doubting each other. So, they try to force-fit someone's personal life into a film," Govinda said. He further added, "I promise if we ever cross paths, I'll give them the Rajinikanth treatment in public. No misbehaving please! I request with folded hands - jokes don't look good every time, everywhere."

Govinda Naam Mera stars Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar and Kiara Advani and is produced by Dharma Productions. In the film, Govinda (Vicky) is going through a troubled marriage with Gauri (Bhumi) and wishes to divorce her and marry his girlfriend and fellow backup dancer Suku (Kiara). However, he's stuck in the marriage as Bhumi asks him to return the Rs 2 crore amount given to him at the time of the marriage as dowry.

Sunita Ahuja has often made revelations about their married life in public. In a recent interview with Miss Malini, Sunita claimed that Govinda should behave himself as it's not his 'age' to engage in such activities.

"Mere bache bade ho gaye (My kids are grown up now). I have always said that they get disturbed. I always say that ye tumhari umar nahi hai (this is not the age for this). Lekin kya hai na, aajkal ki jo ladkiyan aati hain struggle karne ke liye, they need a sugar daddy jo unka kharcha chalaye. Shakal do kaudi ki hai, heroine banna chahti hai. Phir kya karte hain, phasa lenge, blackmail karenge (The girls who come today to struggle need a sugar daddy to pick up their expenses. They don't have a good face but want to be heroines. So they entice men and blackmail them)," Sunita said.

Reacting to the ongoing chatter, Govinda had claimed that his 'loved ones' are being used against him in a bigger 'conspiracy'.
