Sushant Chose His Career & Moved On: Ankita on Being Blamed

Actress Ankita Lokhande, who dated actor Sushant Singh Rajput for several years, opened up about how the break-up had affected her life and career after their split. Ankita Lokhande and Sushant Singh Rajput fell in love while starring on the TV show Pavitra Rishta, which made stars out of both the actors.

Ankita and Sushant played lovers on the show and were one of the most popular TV couples, both on screen and in real life. Sushant Singh Rajput died by suicide in June last year, when Ankita was one of the few celebs, who stood by the late actor's family.

In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Ankita said that Sushant "chose his career" over the relationship while she struggled to move on: "People come and tell me 'You left Sushant...'. How do you know that? Nobody knows about my thing, you know. I am not blaming anyone here. Sushant... he made his choice very clear. He wanted to go on with his career. He chose his career and moved on.
