Ankita told Isha, “Bahut baar banda batata nahi hai breakup ke baare main kyunki ussko lagta hai ki shayad wapas relationship thik hojaye. Ek hope rehti hai yaar. I remember jab mera breakup hua tha toh for 2 years I didn’t really want anyone to know about it. Later when I got into a relationship with Vicky, toh everyone trolled him badly, but usne mera bahut sath diya, itna koi deta nahi hai (There are times when a person does not talk about his breakup because he has this hope that they might reconcile. Hope is always here. I remember when I had my breakup, I did not open up about it for 2 years. Later, I got into a relationship with Vicky and everyone trolled him badly. But, he never gave up and supported me throughout).”

Isha, who got emotional, shared, “Main samajh sakti hu (I can understand). When I dated Abhishek, I didn’t accept our relationship in a single interview because of the same reasons. It gets bad with time.”

Ankita responded to the same and said, “I can understand but I had hopes of Sushant returning as our relationship was of 7 years. I had hoped he would return home and hence I didn’t tell anyone. I was staying in a home that had photos of us all over. When I met Vicky I didn’t know what it would lead to but he supported me a lot.”
