But the longest running show (five years and 12 episodes) ended in disappointment for millions of viewers. Although Sushant left the show halfway through to make a career in Bollywood, Ankita worked on it till the last episode. That's why when the creators of this serial announced to make its second season, the memories of this serial were fresh to many people. At the same time, he was happy to announce that Ankita is back in her second season. Tragic memories of Sushant's untimely death have returned to his mind.

Of course, Ankita is very happy to be back in the show which gave her a wonderful welcome. And with Shahir Shekhar in the role of 'Manav', he has also fallen in love. But he says Shahir is very quiet. When I'm too talkative. I never go and sit in my vanity van during the break I get while shooting on set. When I have time I go around the whole set and meet everyone and talk to them. Shahir is very calm and polite so it took a day for us to get acquainted. But soon after we were introduced we were engrossed in our characters. And following the chemistry that has developed between us, we are doing our best.

However, when the second season of the show was announced, many netizens said that it would be difficult to see an actor other than Sushant in the role of 'Manav'. But Ankita said in this regard that I always think positive. And I also see positive comments on social media. Everything in it looks good to me. It is natural to get mixed response in any other matter. Each person being different from the other person. So his thoughts, the response being of a different kind. I am grateful to those who have showered love on me.

It may be mentioned here that Ankita is originally from Indore. She came to Mumbai in 2006 to pursue a career in acting. Ankita also starred in the talent hunt reality show 'Idea Zee Cinestars' to prove how talented she is. However, he got a chance to show his talent four years later through 'Pavitra Rishta'. He made his Bollywood debut with the movie 'Manikarnika' starring Kangana Ranaut. After that Ankita also worked in 'Baagi-2'.

Ankita survived in the show business due to her dedication to acting and her commitment to work hard. "I was already very calm," says Ankita, recalling her journey from the beginning of her career to the present day. I never ran after any work. I just listened to my mind. ‘Sacred Relationship’ was a turning point in my career. This show has given me the unconditional love of the viewers.

It is because of this serial that I was able to make my home in Mumbai. What more could I want? The rest of my family is my strength. My family has always been stubborn and standing by my side. To be honest, Mumbadevi has given me a lot of love and Mumbai has embraced me.

However, it is not that Ankita did not have to struggle to come forward and survive in the world of entertainment. He says I have also struggled for my share. That is why I am ready to help the novices in Mumbai. Especially to new artists working on my show I say they can contact me anytime if they need to.

I also explain to aspiring artists that time and circumstances do not go according to our plan. It often happens that we have to abandon our plans. That is why I comfort the novice who have gone astray. Else I never compromise with my principles. Everyone has a best friend. My best friend is my mom. I tell him all my things.
