ate actor Sushant Singh Rajput and Ankita Lokhande who met on the sets of Pavitra Rishta were one among the foremost loved television couples. After the actor’s death last year, Ankita has been a continuing support to his family and has recalled him on several occasions. Now, during a recent interview with a news portal, Ankita shared the memory of her first meeting with Sushant and called it ‘really weird’.
Speaking to the Quint, Ankita said, “It was very weird. i feel it had been really weird. Sushant was very silent like Shaheer (Sheikh) only i feel he was doing his own work. considerably like Shaheer. He wont to get on his own…We had to travel for a promo shoot and Sushant had come to select me up from my home and was downstairs. My mother was also there. I remember I got late. My hair and makeup were being done from 4 am and Sushant had reached my place around 5 am. I decreased at 6 am and he was very angry. After I came downstairs I got into the backseat of the car with my mother and fell asleep. He was so angry that firstly I came late then visited sleep within the backseat. He took the car from the driving force and did rash driving. I didn’t understand why he was doing like that. My mother then said ‘He is getting angry’. i used to be like ‘What am i able to do? He should have come upstairs’. That was my first meeting with Sushant that way. He was like ‘Oh she went and fell asleep within the backseat. She has the heroine attitude’.”
The actors were during a relationship from 2010 but parted ways in 2016. Ankita is currently performing on the sequel of Pavitra Rishta with actor Shaheer Sheikh. she is going to reprise her role as Archana while Shaheer will step into the shoes of Sushant and play Manav’s character. the online series created by Ekta Kapoor will stream on ZEE5.
