Bigg Boss 17

Ankita Lokhande is currently in the Bigg Boss 17 house. The actress has unfortunately faced some brutal trolling on the premise that she has been talking about her ex-boyfriend and late actor Sushant Singh Rajput entirely too much. Netizens trolled Ankita for using Sushant Singh Rajput's name only to get some sympathy. Now, Sushant Singh Rajput's sister, Kriti, shared an old picture with Ankita, showcasing her solidarity with the Bigg Boss 17 contestant.

On January 16, Shweta , Sushant Singh Rajput's sister, shared an old picture with Bigg Boss 17 contestant Ankita Lokhande. Ankita and Sushant Singh Rajput were romantically involved for a few years. While on the show, Ankita has talked about Sushant Singh Rajput a couple of times, which made netizens target Ankita. In the shared picture, Kirti said, “We love you, Anki! You are the best and the purest."


Ankita Lokhande's mother responds to the backlash

In an interview with Galatta India, Ankita Lokhande's mother responded to the comments made by Vicky Jain's mother, who had brought up Ankita Lokhande's deceased father. During one of the episodes, Ankita Lokhande was seen kicking Vicky Jain, which prompted Vicky Jain's mother to call up Ankita's mother and ask if she ever did that to her recently deceased husband. “What was the need to call her? My mother is alone. My father has just passed away. Please don’t involve my parents,” Ankita had told her mother-in-law on the show.

Ankita Lokhande's mom reveals being hurt by Vicky Jain's mom, she said, “It was wrong. Both Ankita and Vicky have been away from their parents for three months; it shouldn’t have happened on the show like this. Vicky has no idea that this conversation has even happened. I don’t want their relationship to get affected by this. Ankita was crying, she was concerned. I would have never told her about it, but she said she already knew. I was very hurt when I saw that promo video, and I know that Ankita misses her father a lot.”

Ankita’s father died last year, and her mother said Ankita took on the household. “Her father had promised her he’d watch her on the show. His presence will never leave us. He’s not with us anymore, but I know the man he was. And my family knows. But Ankita is not with me, and she was very stressed. All I told her was that she needs to be careful about what she says on the show, because it can be misconstrued against her.”
