She also insisted Govinda to leave all grudges against Sunita and get along with her. She said, " Arre Chi Chi bhaiya, Govinda ji, kya ho gaya aapko? Haan, itne bade Lalbaug Ganpati mein aap woh Roopa, Komal kaun hai? Komal-pomal ko lekar gaye.

Yeh ek bahut galat baat hai, Govinda ji.Apni biwi ko lekar jaana chahiye tha, jiske saath aapne 40 saal guzare hain, Sunita ji ke saath. Yeh bahut... main aaj tak aapka saath de rahi thi.

Chi Chi bhaiya, yeh bahut galat baat hai. Aap toh mere itne acche dost hain.Yeh Roopa kya hai? Yeh galat baat hai. Bahut galat baat hai. Sunita ji ko kyun nahi lekar gaye? Biwi ko lekar jaana. Aise alag-alag rehne ka koi matlab nahi hai.Aap kuch bhi kar lo, Sunita ji aapko akela nahi chhodegi. Aap unke saath hamesha rahenge. Kaun hai yeh Roopa khajuri? Bhan ke pakodi. Theek hai, actress-actress ko baaju mein rakhiye. Biwi ka saath dijiye."(Oh Chi Chi bhaiya, Govinda ji, what has happened to you? Yes, at such a big Lalbaug Ganpati celebration, you took that Roopa, Komal, whoever she is... Komal or whatever. This is very wrong, Govinda ji. You should have taken your wife, the woman you have spent 40 years with, Sunita ji. This is very... I have supported you till today. Chi Chi bhaiya, this is very wrong. You are such a good friend of mine. What is this Roopa? This is wrong.

Very wrong. Why didn’t you take Sunita ji? You should take your wife with you. There is no point in living separately like this. No matter what you do, Sunita ji will never leave you alone. You will always be with her. Who is this Roopa Khajuri? Bhan ke pakodi. Fine, keep the actress and all that aside. Stand by your wife.)Rakhi also questioned why Govinda was creating such a situation when he could have chosen to celebrate the festival with Sunita.
