Ankita Lokhande is not only one of the most terrific actresses but she is also one of the strongest women in the industry. Ever since her ex-boyfriend Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, Ankita has been facing a lot of negativity from trolls and netizens just for the fact that she chose to move on in her life and is happy.
In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Bubble, the actress opened up about everything that went wrong in her relationship with Sushant, how it ended, how it affected her and left her in depression and how she battled all of it through. The actress even revealed why she kept Sushant’s picture in her house even after they broke-up in 2016.
Speaking to Bollywood Bubble, Ankita revealed that she hadn’t removed Sushant’s pictures from her house even after their breakup. Her friends used to question her decision and asked her to remove the pictures and move on. Sharing her response to her friend’s requests, the actress said, “Give me time, yaar. I need my time. I am not somebody… Main 2.5 saal tak unke saath rahi hoon (I have lived with him for two-and-a-half years). I have lived my life with those pictures.”
Ankita revealed that instead of running away from the situation she decided to keep those pictures as she wanted to get over Sushant completely. “I am not somebody who will run away from the situation. I was getting up and facing that thing every day so that agar Sushant kabhi mere saamne aaye toh (if Sushant ever comes in front of me) I face him strongly. That was my thought process,” shared the Manikarnika actress.
She further added, “I faced it every single day. Ek din aaya (There came a day) when I realised that now I am done, now I need to remove the pictures. And I removed it. I felt that ek jagah khali hogi tabhi toh doosri pictures aayegi (only when I create space by removing those pictures that I can accommodate new pictures). I met Vicky (Jain) and he is in my life. I am very, very, very happy with him.”
