Ankita Lokhande BREAKS Silence on Discussing Sushant Singh Rajput in Bigg Boss: 'Mere Husband Ko...'

Ankita Lokhande has opened up about discussing her late ex-boyfriend Sushant Singh Rajput in Bigg Boss 17. The actress was accused of using Sushant’s name for gaining sympathy on the show. Now that the show is over, Ankita has broken her silence over the criticism that she received for talking about the late Bollywood star.

“Yes, I read about it and I would like to say that I don’t need anyone’s fan following and Mujhe Kisi ke baare mein baat karne ke liye bhi Kisi ki permission ki koi zarurat nahi (I don’t need anyone’s permission to talk about anybody)… If someone has done something really nice in their life, I would definitely discuss it. I used to discuss my father a lot in the Bigg Boss 17 house because I felt he was an integral part of my life,” Ankita told Times of India.com.

She further revealed that even her husband Vicky Jain has no problem with her talking about Sushant. “Yes, I discussed Sushant as well Kyunki agar mere Saamne koi ladka baitha hai and he wants to be like his inspiration Sushant and if I know about Sushant then why won’t I speak or share information. I will definitely motivate that person. Agar koi insaan chala gaya aur usne bahut acchi cheezein ki hai life mein I don’t have a problem discussing him. Mere husband ko koi problem nahi hai, I’m not answerable to people,” Ankita added.

Earlier talking about her breakup with Sushant, Ankita told Munawar Faruqui on the show, “Wo ek dum ek 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).” She also revealed that Sushant never really gave her any explanation for their breakup.

Ankita had also revealed that after she parted ways with Sushant, it took her two and a half years to move on. She claimed that even though Sushant had moved on after their breakup, she could not imagine herself dating somebody else for a long time.
