Bigg Boss 17: Teary-Eyed Ankita Lokhande Doesn't Mind Talking About Ex Sushant As 'He's Family'

Daily soap Pavitra Rishta co-stars Sushant Singh Rajput and Ankita Lokhande dated for 7 years until 2016. Where Sushant found love in Kriti Sanon and then moved on to date Rhea Chakraborty, Ankita waited until 2019 when she was ready. The actress married Vicky Jain the same year and has now appeared on Bigg Boss 17 with him.

On the show, Ankita has now remembered Sushant and doesn’t have any problem mentioning him.

In conversation with co-contestant Abhishek Kumar, Ankita said, “Your physique, like you are roaming without a shirt, reminds me of Sushant, but he would not get angry like you. He was very quiet. Very silent. He did another level of hard work.” In an earlier episode, Ankita had said Sushant broke up with her without any reason.

She truly loved Sushant... no offence to his fans... but only Ankita knows what she goes through... people are judging her... judging is easy who went to this... only she knows the pain.” “Compared to all contestants of the season Ankita is real,” said another. The third one added, “She is so pure. But IDK why people (are) always after her.”

#SushantSinghRajput never uttered one bad word against #AnkitaLokhande after their breakup.

It was her PR who kept portraying her as some Devi... Every other day, there used to be articles regarding how selfless she was in that relationship n how selfish sushant was...

In another episode of Bigg Boss, Ankita also revealed how Vicky helped her after Sushant passed away in 2020.

She was heard saying, “Vicky was also Sushant’s friend. He has been very supportive in these matters. What can you do when there is nothing? Someone has died, what can you even do? You have to be supportive. There was no one to support. Vicky handled everything very nicely. Had he not been supportive, I wouldn’t have been able to do anything.”

She added, “I am very easy go lucky. Sushant would dive deep into anything. He would get affected by what people are talking about him on Twitter. He would think about people's opinions a lot. It was very normal because he was from a small town.” On the show, Vicky and Ankita are seeing major turbulence on the show.
