Bigg Boss 17 contestant actress Ankita Lokhande struck a chord with viewers once again by candidly sharing her emotional journey after Sushant Singh Rajput passed away. She and fellow contestant Munawar Faruqui shared an emotional memory of the actor's passing in a recent episode, leaving audiences moved by her vulnerability.

The actress broke down in tears as she recalled SSR's passing in the most recent episode while talking to Munawar Faruqui. In June 2020, Sushant's body was found in his Mumbai flat.

Ankita recalled seeing a picture shortly after Sushant passed away, which she described as both heartbreaking and numbing. “When I saw him, I felt everything was over. So many films he watched, and everything was over. There was this one picture of him which was very bad,” she remarked, as Pinkvilla reported.
