In an interview, she reflected on the emotional loss of her daughter, highlighting her deep commitment to family life and her choice to stay out of the film industry.
In an interview with Pinkvilla, Sunita explained she didn’t pursue acting because her priority was raising her children, which required full attention.

She values family and preferred to raise her children herself, ensuring they were nurtured at home. Concerned about the challenges of the entertainment industry, she prioritised keeping her kids grounded.
She also expressed pride in her children’s upbringing, describing them as well-mannered, cultured, and grounded. She mentioned that they practice rituals, regularly visit the temple, and follow traditions, highlighting her role in nurturing them with strong values.
