'Believe you both are together': Ankita Lokhande shares Sushant Singh's mother's pic

Ankita Lokhande on Friday took to her Instagram handle and shared a picture of herself holding a photo frame of Sushant Singh Rajput's mother and wrote, 'Believe you both are together'. Sushant's sister Shweta Singh Kirti commented saying, "Yes they are... ❤️ Luv u baby... stay strong.... we hav to fight till we find justice" [sic]

Shivam Mahadevan dropped a heart emoji while actor Karan Vir Bohra wrote, "Om Namoshivaya" on the picture. Ankita Lokhande broke her silence on Sushant Singh Rajput's death in a tell-all interview on Republic TV’s Nation Wants to Know with Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami.

The actor asserted that her ex-boyfriend was not someone who could be depressed. The Manikarnika star also stated that he could commit suicide as he was like a child who enjoyed the smallest joys of life and expressed confidence about knowing the 'truth' and all those fighting for justice will win.

Lokhande also confessed that it took time for her to accept the 'depression' narrative around Sushant Singh Rajput's death, said, "He was not a man who could take such a step," and alleged that it was unbelievable for her to accept that the actor took away his own life. She recalled that Sushant had always been a very happy-go-lucky person and had faced bigger adversities in life when they were in a relationship.

Conveying her gratitude to Arnab for supporting 'justice' for Sushant, the actor concluded by saying, “I just put out Instagram story ‘Truth wins’ and I believe that whatever is the truth will come out."
