Krushna Abhishek on reuniting with Sunita Ahuja

Talking about the emotional moment, Krushna told Hindustan Times, "This was one of the most memorable episodes we have done during Laughter Chefs. I didn't know. The creatives and channel kept it a secret. I didn't know that Sunita ji is coming, even Kashmera didn't know. Bharti, who is the host of the show also didn't know about it until it was announced. It was a shock for everyone and such an emotional moment because after such a long time we were meeting maami."

"Especially it was for Kashmera because ek do baar in the past I have seen maami at events but Kashmera to 10 saal mein takrai bhi nahi hai unse. So it was one of the most special moments which we will remember for life. So bohot maza aaya," he added.

Krushna emotionally recalled the time he spent with Govinda and Sunita growing up, saying, "Sunita maami ne mujhe bache ki tarah pala hai, badha kiya hai, main unke ghar par raha hun 8 saal. We had a joint family. Kal humari itni baatein Hui hai, jo ice break hui. Jo band kamre mein hona tha wo channel ne stage pe kar diya."

Krushna and Govinda's conflict

Krushna Abhishek and Kashmera had a public fallout with actor uncle Govinda and his wife Sunit Ahuja almost a decade back, where they indulged in public jibes. They did not speak to each other for years at a stretch.

The conflict started when Govinda expressed displeasure at Krushna for making jokes about him on television. Over time, Sunita also distanced herself from Krushna and his family. To add to the feud, Kashmera's tweet about ‘people who dance for money' several years ago offended Sunita, who thought it was aimed at Govinda.

Matters escalated when Krushna accused Govinda of not visiting his children in the hospital, while Govinda labelled his nephew a "liar", leading to a rather public showdown.

In 2024, Sunita even refused to be a part of comedian Kapil Sharma's show because of Krushna and his wife, Kashmera Shah's presence. However, in recent years, Krushna has tried to make amends through several interviews.
