Ankita Lokhande Talks About Her Breakup With Sushant Singh Rajput:

During a heartfelt conversation with fellow contestant Munawar Faruqui, Ankita disclosed, “Wo ek dum rak raat mein gayab ho gaya. Success mil rahi thi toh log uske kaan bhar rahe the." (He suddenly disappeared. He was getting success, so people were trying to manipulate him.)

After their breakup, Ankita admitted that it took her a considerable two and a half years to move on. She told that while Sushant immediately moved on and started dating other women, she was struggling with the idea of dating someone new for a prolonged period.

The pair's portrayal of Archana and Manav in Pavitra Rishta earned them widespread adoration, leading Sushant to venture into Bollywood, ultimately leaving the show in 2011. He was seen in films like 'Kai Po Che', 'MS Dhoni', 'PK' and 'Dil Bechara'. His untimely demise in June 2020 sent shockwaves through the industry and his fanbase.

Now happily married to Vicky Jain, Ankita has not shied away from discussing her past with Sushant in public. Reflecting on her husband's support during this challenging time, she shared, "It is not easy for a man to watch his to-be wife giving interviews on her ex-boyfriend on television and talking about her past."
