During the 'Bigg Boss' press conference, Ankita's inclination to talk about Sushant sparked debates, with some speculating that she was seeking sympathy. In a conversation with indianexpress.com, Ankita shed light on her intentions behind discussing her former beau.
Ankita's Response to Allegations
Responding to allegations of exploiting sympathy, Ankita asserted, "I would have even spoken about Sushant outside if I felt someone was inspired by him. If that person knew I was related to Sushant, I would want to tell them a story that I knew about Sushant. There is nothing wrong, I am not telling people my story, I was telling them about him. So let people say what they want to."She further elaborated, stating, "I don’t get bothered about playing a sympathy card or offending Sushant’s fanbase. I know I can get abused by them, but when I know some good things about him, why should I keep quiet? I would even talk about my father who has played a very important part in my life. Anyone who has been a part of my life, I will speak about them because they inspire me also somewhere to live a better life. If I can inspire someone who wants to be like Sushant, I will speak about him to that person."
