The media asked the Pavitra Rishta actress if she brought up late actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s name as part of her game strategy or to win over his fans and gain their support in the game. However, the actress denied it. She shared that co-contestant Abhishek Kumar considers Sushant an idol and looks up to him. So, she just wanted to share the good things about the late actor to inspire him.
Ankita Lokhande said, “I've always talked only good things about Sushant because I feel if I can tell some good things about him through this platform why not? Usne acche kaam kiye hain, (he has done good work) and I can speak about it because jitne main unke baare mein jaanti hoon (as much as I know about him) and I've seen his journey. And I've explained the same about him.”
Further, she continued, “I feel very proud to talk about Sushant wherever I am and there is nothing wrong in talking about Sushant. I am talking only about the good things which I know about him. I feel it is absolutely fine because jitna main Sushant ko jaanti hoon shayad koi nahi jaanta. (as much as I know about Sushant, nobody else knows) And if there is a young boy who wants to be like him I will talk to him or anybody else.”
