Fans of Corrie will of course know that Sunita Alahan (Shobna Gulati) ended her marriage to shopkeeper Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) when she moved her lover Karl Munro into the couple’s home…
However, since then, the relationship between Sunita and Karl (John Michie) has broken down, given that Karl has nothing but disdain for Sunita and wants his ex-girlfriend Stella Price (Michelle Collins) back.
And though initially Dev of course hated Sunita for what she’d done, he softened towards her as time went on, and of late, he’s been particularly kind to her as Karl’s humiliated her. So when Dev buys Sunita a necklace for the couple’s twins to give her on Mother’s Day, Sunita’s touched by the gesture… Read more & comment »

As fans of Coronation Street will know, Sunita Alahan is having an affair with taxi driver Karl Munro (John Michie) and while speaking to Soaplife about what advice he’d give his character Dev, Jimmi Harkishin has revealed that he’d tell him to throw her out.
Dev is of course Sunita’s (Shobna Gulati) shopkeeper husband, however, having fallen in love with Karl, Dev won’t need to throw Sunita out as she’s going of her own accord!
Speaking to Soaplife about what happens when Sunita decides to leave Dev, Jimmi explained that the drama takes place against the backdrop of the Street’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations.
He said, “Dev is dressed as Adam Ant [for a street party], Karl is Tom Jones and Sunita is Beyonce, so it is quite comical.
“Karl dives behind the counter. It’s a heightened Corrie reality and funny because he doesn’t catch them at it.
“It’s much more serious when he finally confronts her about whether there is someone else…” Read more & comment »

It would seem that Corrie star Jimmi Harkishin is nothing like his Street character Dev Alahan – who gets annoyed if his wife Sunita wears a low cut top – as he invited porn star Kat Lee to accompany him to the premiere of musical Chicago.
Jimmi, and Kat of course, were among a number of celebrities who’d been invited to the special event at Manchester’s Palace Theatre. The Sun reports that Kat arrived at the venue first, with Jimmi arriving just moments later.
The paper adds, “But once inside the foyer, they were spotted cuddling up as they headed to the bar. The pair then sat together as they watched the show. Afterwards, they were spotted in Jimmi’s car sharing a bag of chips.”
An onlooker in the theatre told the paper, “A few people know who this girl is and they were shocked to see her there with Jimmi. But he didn’t seem to care.
“He had his arm around her and was introducing her to people in there. He tried to cover things up by making her walk separately from him… Read more & comment »
It’s been reported today that after telling husband Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) where to stick his job in the shop, feisty Sunita Alahan will take a job in the Rovers…
Which is sure to infuriate and humiliate him!
The Daily Star reports that Sunita’s shock move will come after she sees Dev lavishing attention on his daughter Amber (Nikki Patel) and letting her get away with having days off and being late for work.
But as viewers will probably know, by Christmas, Amber’s going to be embroiled in a love triangle with Sophie Webster (Brooke Vincent) and Sian Powers (Sacha Parkinson) so she’s probably more intent on all that then being stood behind the counter at the shop.
However, while Amber’s busy wrapping her dad around her little finger, he’ll be putting pressure on his wife, mum of two Sunita – who’s played by Shobna Gulati – to take up the slack… Read more & comment »
