In the ongoing drama of Bigg Boss 17, which has divided audiences between TV and non-TV stars, Ankita Lokhande has received praise from renowned TV producer Ekta Kapoor. This commendation comes after a heated exchange between Firoza Khan (Khan Zaadi) and Ankita Lokhande, where Khan Zaadi’s comment upset Ankita, prompting a prolonged argument about the recognition of TV stars, even though the show is telecast on television.
The controversy further escalated when TV producer Sandiip Sikcand shared a post, which was perceived by many as a veiled jab at Ankita Lokhande. He voiced his opinion that those who loudly proclaim their pride in being TV stars are often the ones responsible for making life difficult for producers.
In a show of support, Hina Khan, another prominent TV personality, penned a heartfelt note in defense of Ankita Lokhande. Hina Khan highlighted the substantial run of the show, spanning over four years with a daily episode format, and urged people to question film actors on the same issues before criticizing TV artists. She underscored that Ankita Lokhande was merely standing up for her fellow fraternity members.
Following Hina Khan’s endorsement, Ekta Kapoor has joined the chorus in defense of Ankita Lokhande. She commended the TV diva as an incredibly professional and delightful actor to collaborate with, hailing her as one of the best leads she has worked with.
Sandiip Sikcand, however, has indirectly responded to Hina Khan’s comments, further fueling the ongoing discussion. Criticizing TV stars is not a new phenomenon, with past instances like the Cannes incident involving Hina Khan and a well-known magazine editor being remembered by many.
Ankita Lokhande is currently regarded as one of the finalists on Bigg Boss 17, alongside Munawar Faruqui. Notably, the husband-wife duo of Vicky Jain and Ankita Lokhande has been displaying remarkable resilience on the show while playing independently, and it appears that Vicky Jain has been well-prepared for the challenges of Bigg Boss.
