New Delhi: Ankita Lokhande, who is currently on 'Bigg Boss 17', spoke about her ex-boyfriend and late actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Ankita opened up about Sushant during a conversation with fellow contestant Abhishek Kumar. 


Ankita said that Abhishek reminds him of the late actor as his physique is similar to Sushant. Ankita told Abhishek, “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.” 


Ankita also teared up remembering Sushant and said, “Sushant was hardworking to the next level. He was very involved and was a perfectionist. I’m very easy-go-lucky, but he would dive deep into things. He would get affected by what people talked about him on Twitter.”  






Ankita shared that Sushant cared for everyone around him. “Sushant did not have anybody to stand up for him,” she added. 


Abhishek then said that he had decided that he would not talk about Sushant with Ankita, to which she replied, “No, that’s fine. I only feel proud talking about him. I feel good talking about him. He is family.” 


Abhishek then asked if her husband Vicky Jain was supportive when the news of the late actor's untimely demise came out.  


Ankita said: "Vicky supporting tha. What will one do when someone leaves? There was no one for him (SSR) to stand. If there was no support for Vicky, I wouldn't have been able to do anything." 


This is not the first time Ankita has spoken about Sushant in the house. Earlier in a conversation with Munawar Faruqui, the Pavitra Rishta actor had spoken about her break-up with the late actor. 


“Wo ek dum rak raat mein gayab ho gaya. Success mil rahi thi toh log uske kaan bhar rahe the,” Ankita was heard telling Munawar.  


The actress shared that Sushant had not given any reason for a break-up and things just changed in one night. 


Ankita also shared that when she looked into his eyes she realised there was no love and that’s when she figured that it was all over. 


Ankita started dating Sushant on the sets of the show ‘Pavitra Rishta’ in 2010 and broke up seven years later.
