In a candid revelation on the latest episode of Bigg Boss 17, Ankita Lokhande, the acclaimed actress, opened up about her emotional turmoil upon witnessing the intimate scenes of her late beau, Sushant Singh Rajput, on the silver screen. The actress, who has been a prominent participant in the reality show, bared her soul to fellow contestants Abhishek Kumar and Ayesha Khan during a heart-to-heart in the garden area.
Ankita disclosed that she experienced a wave of intense emotions when Sushant, her former partner, enacted kissing scenes in the film “Shuddh Desi Romance.” Despite Sushant having conscientiously informed her about the scenes beforehand and Ankita maintaining a hands-off approach to his professional choices, the actual viewing proved to be a jolting and painful experience for her. She reminisced about the exclusive screening of the movie at YRF Studios, where Sushant had reserved the entire hall for the two of them.

The actress further revealed that Sushant, too, was sad by her distress and joined in her tears. He earnestly promised Ankita that such scenes would not recur in his future endeavors.
