Govinda Justifies Lalbaugcha Raja Visit With Komal Rani Swarnkar, Says ‘Aapko Kya Taqleef Hai?’; Bollywood Actor Explains Roopa Connection, Recalls Karisma Kapoor and Raveena Tandon Visits Amid Sunita Ahuja Buzz
Bollywood actor Govinda has responded to the widespread attention surrounding his recent visit to Mumbai’s Lalbaugcha Raja with his Roopa co-star Komal Rani Swarnkar. Their appearance generated considerable discussion online, particularly amid ongoing public speculation concerning Govinda’s personal life and his marriage to Sunita Ahuja.
Speaking to ANI, Govinda explained that his visit with Komal was linked to his upcoming movie Roopa. He said he had gone to Lalbaugcha Raja to pray for the film as he prepares to begin a new phase of his career after a long gap.
‘Aapko Kya Taqleef Hai?’ Govinda Reacts to Attention
Govinda questioned why his appearance with Komal Rani was attracting so much attention when, according to him, the purpose of the visit was professional and spiritual.
Reacting to the discussion, he asked why people had a problem if they were becoming famous. His remarks, widely reported as “Aapko kya taqleef hai?”, came as pictures and videos from the Ganpati visit circulated across social media.
The actor maintained that his equation with Komal is professional. He also claimed that some of the speculation surrounding him was part of a planned effort to damage his public image and distance him from his family. That allegation is Govinda’s own claim and has not been independently established by the reports.
Govinda Says Visit Was for Roopa Film
The Bollywood actor said his primary reason for visiting Lalbaugcha Raja was to seek blessings for Roopa. The upcoming film will feature Govinda alongside Komal Rani Swarnkar and is being positioned as his return to the big screen after an extended absence.
Govinda and Komal were seen offering prayers at the pandal on September 22. Govinda also participated in the final aarti. Their appearance came on the same day Sunita Ahuja had separately visited Lalbaugcha Raja, contributing to the media and social-media attention around the two visits.
Govinda Recalls Karisma Kapoor and Raveena Tandon
While explaining his decision to visit the religious site with a co-star, Govinda referred to his earlier experiences with Karisma Kapoor and Raveena Tandon.
Govinda said he had previously visited temples with Karisma Kapoor and associated those visits with good fortune for their films. He similarly recalled visiting with Raveena Tandon. According to him, visiting with Komal Rani for Roopa followed a similar practice of seeking blessings for a new project.
Karisma Kapoor and Raveena Tandon were among Govinda’s prominent co-stars during his highly successful period in Hindi cinema, making his reference to those earlier professional partnerships particularly notable.
Sunita Ahuja’s Visit Also Draws Attention
Sunita Ahuja had visited Lalbaugcha Raja earlier on September 22. Later, Govinda arrived with Komal Rani, and the timing of the two appearances became part of the online discussion.
Reports have connected the episode with longstanding public speculation about Govinda and Sunita’s marriage. However, claims concerning Govinda and Komal’s personal relationship remain disputed. Govinda has maintained that he is working with Komal professionally, while his manager has previously rejected claims about Govinda planning another marriage.
Roopa Brings Govinda and Komal Rani Together
The attention surrounding Govinda and Komal Rani is also placing Roopa in the spotlight before its release. Komal is set to appear as the film’s female lead, while Govinda is also reportedly producing the project.
For Govinda, Roopa represents an important return to films. The actor was one of Hindi cinema’s biggest comedy and dance stars during the 1990s and 2000s, and his new project has consequently generated curiosity among longtime fans.

Govinda Maintains Relationship Is Professional
Govinda’s latest comments make his stated position clear: he describes his association with Komal Rani Swarnkar as professional and says their Lalbaugcha Raja appearance was intended to seek blessings for Roopa.
By recalling similar visits involving Karisma Kapoor and Raveena Tandon, Govinda presented the latest appearance as part of a professional tradition rather than confirmation of the relationship speculation circulating online.
As Roopa moves forward, the film will likely keep both Govinda and Komal Rani in the spotlight. For now, Govinda has chosen to respond directly to the attention, questioning why the visit has generated such intense discussion and reiterating that his focus remains on his work.
