When asked if his parents are still struggling with his relationship with 62-year-old Jenny, Sumit told Us Weekly in a video interview, "You can say that."
"The last thing, which you saw [on TV was] a big fight, and now my mom decided just to move into the house," Sumit revealed with Jenny sitting by his side for the interview.
"We are trying to fix this up. Let's see how this is going to go. But to see that, you'll have to wait [until the show returns]."
Sumit also confirmed his brother -- who is "doing good" and got married almost one year ago -- doesn't exactly have his back.
"He looks more responsible than before and we do chat sometimes... He tries to understand [my relationship] but our parents is the main thing between [us]. Ugh, they need to accept it. They need to accept our relationship," Sumit explained.
"If the parents are not agreeing with our relationship, then he can't support us."
Sumit, however, is still holding out hope his parents will eventually come around, and he said he would "love" to have his mother and father attend his wedding to Jenny someday.
"I would love that. Yeah, definitely, for sure, no doubt," Sumit shared. "I keep trying, I'm still trying."
Jenny added, "Keep praying."

RELATED LINK: '90 DAY FIANCE' COUPLES NOWTLC recently released a trailer for the new 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way season and Jenny was shown screaming at Sumit for not marrying her and throwing an object at a wall.
"As angry as you saw me... that's never happened again. I'm not that angry [typically]," Jenny insisted.
"That was out of frustration. That was just sheer frustration. I just was frustrated to the point of no return, and that's what you saw."
As far as where the lovebirds see themselves in five years, Jenny joked that she and Sumit will probably be sitting in the same spot on his couch in India -- but "hopefully" with wedding rings on their fingers.
"That's the plan," Sumit agreed. "Hopefully, that's the plan. We [have been] trying to get married since 2013. Until now we haven't married yet, but still, you can say the plan is the same."
Despite the adversity Jenny and Sumit have faced -- including testing positive for coronavirus in April -- the pair appear to be stronger than ever.
Sumit wrote on Instagram in early April, "Our love is way stronger than you think."
And he added the following hashtags to his post, "#Love #stronglove #fightforlove #lovequonquersall #loveislove #90dayfiance #90daytheotherway #tlc #tvshows #loveall #peace."

"When the pandemic hit, it shut the borders and no flights in, no flights out. So I just applied for an extension every month, so that's the way I've been doing it," Jenny explained at the time.
"Every month, [I file] a new extension," she added.
90 Day: Bares All host Shaun Robinson noted it seemed like Jenny didn't really know what was going to happen in the future and was just living month to month.
"My visa can expire, and if they don't want to extend it, that's when I'm probably going to have to leave the country," Jenny said.
Jenny, however, acknowledged she'd be able to stay in India with no problem if she and Sumit actually got married -- which has been the couple's plan all along.
"So, why don't we just do that?!" Shaun asked in regards to tying the knot.
"Sumit doesn't seem to want to separate from his family, so [that's it]," Jenny shared with an angry look on her face.
Sumit remained silent as Jenny spoke and just nodded his head in agreement as he sat beside her.
"Are you satisfied with the relationship with Sumit, just not being married?" Shaun asked for clarification.
"No," Jenny confirmed.

Jenny and Sumit initially met on Facebook and Sumit catfished Jenny, but once she discovered his true identity, she still wanted to be with him.
The couple starred on the first two seasons of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way.
The first season featured Jenny moving to India with the intention of marrying Sumit and staying there permanently, but she later discovered Sumit had been married to another woman for two years and his family was ashamed and furious over Sumit's affair with Jenny.
On Season 2 of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, Sumit divorced his wife and ended up giving Jenny a promise ring to symbolize his commitment and lifelong devotion to her.
Sumit claimed he wanted to marry Jenny more than anything, but he decided not to go through with a wedding in order to avoid ruining his relationship with his disapproving parents completely.
Sahna even threatened to commit suicide if Sumit made Jenny his wife, and so Sumit changed his mind and disappointed Jenny once again.
