Ankita Lokhande’s Mother-In-Law Ranjana Lauds Her Performance In Swatantra Veer Savarkar: ‘Ekdum A1 Hai’ – News18

After her stint in Bigg Boss 17, Ankita Lokhande has put her acting chops to test with Randeep Hooda starrer Swatantra Veer Savarkar. Apart from impressing her fans, Ankita Lokhande also managed to enthrall her mother-in-law Ranjana Jain with her portrayal of Yamunabai Savarkar.

In a video that was shared by the popular paparazzo handle Viral Bhayani, when the paps asked Ranjana Jain’s feedback on Ankita Lokhande’s performance, she didn’t hesitate to laud the actress with compliments, “Ankita to humesha achhi lagti hai beta, humari Ankita ekdum A1 hai (Ankita always looks good, she is A1),” she stated.

Ranjana Jain also responded positively when the paps asked her if she wanted a daughter-in-law like Ankita. She said, “Haan, toh mil gayi na (Yes, so we got her).”

After a successful stint in Salman Khan’s popular reality show Bigg Boss 17, Ankita is currently seen in Randeep Hooda’s film Swatantra Veer Savarkar. Randeep has not only headlined but also directed the film. Ankita plays Randeep’s wife in the film. The film has been released today and opened with mixed reviews.

News18 gave the film 3/5 stars. The review read, “The film mostly stays true to his story until the Kaala Paani sentence and even a little after that. However, when the political career bit starts to shape, Randeep Hooda takes creative liberty and shows scenes that might have not panned out in real life. The film features a scene in which Bhagat Singh meets Savarkar, an incident that isn’t backed with historical evidence. It also hints at the narrative that Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose was inspired by Savarkar and sought his guidance while making a crucial political move. There is no evidence of this either and to top it off, last year, Netaji’s grandnephew Chandra Kumar Bose himself clarified that this was untrue. Given that it is a biopic, the film fails to stay true to history and it is heartbreaking.”
