After revealing that Sushant Singh Rajput never gave her a straightforward reason for why he ended their six-year relationship, TV actress Ankita Lokhande who is currently seen as one of the contestants on Bigg Boss 17 said that the late actor was deeply affected by the things people wrote about him on social media when he was alive.
She discussed this while speaking to co-contestant Abhishek Kumar. “Your physique, when you stroll around without a shirt in pants, strongly reminds me of Sushant Singh Rajput. His body was similar to yours", Ankita told Abhishek.
She continued, “Sushant was hardworking to the next level. He would be 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. Sushant did not have anybody to stand up for him", Ankita said.
When Abhishek apologised to bring up the topic, Ankita said, "Uske baare me baat krna achha lagta hai, proud feeling ati hai. (I like talking about him and always feel very proud of Sushant. He was a family."
