Bigg Boss 17: Ankita Lokhande talks about Sushant Singh Rajput to Abhishek Kumar; says "he was perfectionist"

As a contestant on Bigg Boss 17, Ankita Lokhande disclosed that her late ex-boyfriend Sushant Singh Rajput would be "very affected" by what people posted about him on social media. Ankita also described the late Bollywood star as "an extremely hardworking person." On the set of Pavitra Rishta, directed by Ekta Kapoor, Ankita and Sushant fell in love. 2010 saw them start dating, and 2016 saw them break up.

While speaking with co-contestant Abhishek Kumar, Ankita said, “When you roam around in pants and without shirt, you remind me of Sushant. His physique was exactly like yours.”

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.” Ankita further said that he cared for everyone around him. “Sushant did not have anybody to stand up for him,” she added.
