In Pic: Rinku Dhawan and Ankita Lokhande
Bigg Boss 17: It was the week before last when, during a double elimination task, Rinku Dhawan and Neil Bhatt got evicted from the show. Now, in an interview, Rinku has opened up about how she feels that Ankita Lokhande is using her show 'Pavitra Rishta' and her ex-boyfriend, the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, for the limelight.
The actress in an interview with Instant Bollywood shared, "Once Isha and I were seated, and Ankita talked about how the last scene of Pavitra Rishta was shot and how Sushant came. So, I thought she was telling it to us, but 'baar baar kitna Pavitra Rishta karogi bhaiya.' In my 30-year-long career, I don't even remember how many shows I have done, and mind you, I haven't played a single role that I regret. Thirty years in the industry, doing television, it's huge, and I will take that pat on my back. I have been selective with my work, but I didn't boast about it even once. For Ankita, it feels like she has spent the entire season of Bigg Boss on Pavitra Rishta."
Further, Rinku talked about Ankita bringing Sushant's name every now and then and said, "Sushant Singh, god bless his soul with all respect to his family, with all humbleness, he is no more. Why are you bringing him onto the platform? It has been years since he passed away; your husband is with you. You have a blessed life.
The Bigg Boss 17 finale is just a few weeks away, and ahead of the grand day, the families of the contestants will enter the house to support them. As per the promos, Vicky Jain and Ankita Lokhande's mothers will enter the house. The actress will be seen having an argument with her mother-in-law.
