Ankita Lokhande On Why She Can't Write RIP On Any Of Sushant Singh Rajput's Pictures: "I Have No Guts To Put Something Like That For Him"

Ankita Lokhande has been opening up about her life, and her journey in the industry, like never before. The actress had lost her ex-boyfriend, and Pavitra Rishta co-star Sushant Singh Rajput last year. And while she has now come to terms with the loss, she has opened up about how she still has not found the guts to say something like 'Rest in peace, Sushant'.

Talking to Bollywood Bubble, the actress said, “People started judging me on not putting his picture on the same day he was gone. What do you expect from us? Koi apna chala jaata hai toh hum kya photo daalte hai (Do you put up a photo immediately after a loved one dies)? You won’t believe, till today, I have not ever posted any picture of Sushant with ‘RIP’. I have no guts to put something like that for him. Because I can’t say, ‘rest in peace, Sushant’.”

Shee further added that if she could talk to Sushant, she would have told him how much people love him. She added, “This thing will always be with me, Sushant ka jaana (his death). Now I have come to that point where I am normal. But we all have gone through so much -- his family, me and my parents. I think the whole world was crying for him. Yesterday, there was this lady who came up to me and she was just crying. And sometimes I just feel like I can talk to him. So I was telling him, ‘tumhare liye dekho log kitna…tumse kitna pyaar karte the (see how much everyone loved you)’.”

Sushant Singh Rajput passed away on the 14th of June last year. His death was being investigated by top agencies like CBI. The NCB had been looking into the involvement of drugs in his death. Ankita, meanwhile, had paid tribute to him with a special performance in one of the award shows.
