Ankita Lokhande's 'Pavitra Rishta' Co-Star Mrinalini Tyagi Slams Shibani Dandekar For Her 'Two Seconds Of Fame' Remark

Mrinalini Tyagi, who played Ankita Lokhande's on-screen daughter in Ekta Kapoor's 'Pavitra Rishta', lashed out at Shibani Dandekar for her remark on the 'Manikarnika' actress.

New Delhi: Late Sushant Singh Rajput’s former girlfriend Ankita Lokhande shared a long post on social media, clarifying her stance in the investigation in the actor’s death case. She also revealed why she shared a post on ‘Karma and Fate’ after the Narcotics Control Bureau arrested Rhea Chakraborty. She also indirectly questioned the ‘Jalebi’ actress why she let SSR consume drugs when she claimed to know about his ‘mental condition’. While several fans agreed to Ankita’s opinion, Farhan Akhtar’s girlfriend Shibani Dandekar slammed the ‘Pavitra Rishta’ actress and called her open letter ‘grotesque’. Shibani Dandekar, who is a good friend of Rhea Chakraborty, called Ankita Lokhande ‘princess of patriachy’ and said that she never dealt with her ‘own relationship issues’ with the ‘Dil Bechara’ actor. The former ‘Jhalak Dikhla Jaa’ contestant added that Ankita played a major role in the ‘witch-hunt’ and she needed to be called out. “Such a grotesque letter by @lokhandeankita This princess of patriarchy who has never dealt with her own relationship issues with sushant, clearly she wants her two seconds of fame and has capitalised on rhea being targeted. She has played a major role in this ‘witch-hunt and she needs to be called out! She also just needs to shut the hell up. Enough ankita! No one has more hate in their heart(?) than you,” Dandekar wrote on her Instagram story.

Shibani Dandekar’s ‘two seconds of fame’ comment didn’t go down well with several TV celebs, who have now come out in support of Ankita Lokhande. Mrinalini Tyagi, who played Ankita’s on-screen daughter in ‘Pavitra Rishta’, slammed Shibani for her remark. “I think it's very much evident and clear that who needs 2 secs of fame . Can't even compare Ankita Lokhande @anky1912 with Shibani Dandekar @shibanidandekar,” Tyagi tweeted. Check out her post!

‘Bigg Boss 12’ contestant and popular TV star Karanvir Bohra also extended support to Ankita Lokhande. He expressed his disappointment over people taking digs at the actress without knowing her. "I've known u back when u & Sushant were together, @anky1912 I've seen how loving & responsible u were with him.If things didn't work out,they didn't work out, but it's sad 2c individuals taking personal jibes without knowing you and him. #istandwithyou #AnkitaLokhande," KVB wrote on the micro-blogging site.

Aparna Dixit also posted a note on Instagram and said that Ankita dealt with her break-up with Sushant with 'grace and dignity'. "She has dealt with her break up with grace and dignity, if fame is what she wanted she could have made a big issue out of it long back. Never has she written or talked about anything related to him till it was absolutely necessary," she wrote. Check out her full post right here!
