once made for a lovely couple. The Pavitra
Rishta stars parted ways two-and-a-half
years ago. While rumors of Sushant getting
into another relationship soon spread like a
wildfire, Ankita dealt with the heartbreak
differently and took a sabbatical from work
before signing Manikarnika: The Queen of
Jhansi which also marks her debut in
Bollywood.
In an interview with DNA, the actor opened
up about how the break-up changed her
personality and how it hasn't deterred her
from believing in love.
"Back then, I was trying to be a homemaker
and doing a very big job," Ankita said and
added that her break-up did no affect her
profession but she wasn't able to balance
love and work. "When I was working, I was
satisfied; when I wasn't, I was still happy.
I'm okay with whatever I do. Aisa kabhi
nahin
tha ki mujhe yeh chahiye ya woh chahiye. I
decided to take a break because I was
happy with that then. It was not just for
myself. I guess, the Universe wanted me to
get back professionally, which is why I'm
here now. I won't say the break-up affected
my profession, though. Love and work are
two separate things. You need to balance
them and I'll say I wasn't able to do that,"
she added.
She also added that the entire episode
helped her learn to love herself more than
anything else. She continued that to her love
is now her job as she wants to channelize all
her energy towards it for that makes her
happy. However, she added that that doesn't
mean there is no space for relationships in
her life. She said, "Of course, there is!
(smiles) I'm still waiting for my prince
charming (laughs). But I'm not consciously
looking for a man. I'm done with that! I
don't need a man to reach somewhere in
life. I'd rather have awards."
Earlier rumours of her alleged marriage
were to doing the rounds. About that,
Ankita said "There are no marriage plans
right now. Like I said, I'm still waiting for my
prince charming."
She also opened on maintaining silence
about her break-up and reiterated,
"Obviously, it affects you a lot. You don't
know what's happening with you but it's all
there in the papers. However, I actually feel it
makes you stronger. Today, I don't feel
anything. That's it. Whatever the things
were, my family and friends were with me."
She further added that while she has no
problem staying in touch with her exes, she
hasn't really been in touch with Sushant as
she was busy with her work.
