Komal Rani Swarnkar hits back amid Govinda-Sunita controversy

The controversy intensified after Sunita Ahuja spoke publicly about the difficulties in her marriage. During a temple visit in Kolkata, she appealed to women and Gen Z to support her and spoke about her home falling apart.

Komal Rani Swarnkar later responded through an Instagram Story, arguing that she could not be called a “homebreaker” if the marriage was already troubled. Although Komal did not name Sunita directly, her remarks were widely interpreted as a response to speculation surrounding her equation with Govinda.
