Ankita as Archana in Pavitra Rishta.
Ankita Lokhande said that she would stay beyond her shift hours to help other actors with their cues.
Ankita Lokhande is one of the most popular actresses on television. While she caught everyone’s attention during her stint in Bigg Boss 17, she became a household name when she debuted on television with Sushant Singh Rajput in Pavitra Rishta. The actress recently recalled her experience shooting for the show.
“I remember that my first line was ‘Aai tu shaant ho jaa’. I was so scared that when my turn would come, and I was just waiting because I was zero,” Pinkvilla quoted her as saying. She added, “Acting is such a thing that the more you experience things practically, the more you grow. I have learned only by watching other people on the sets.”
Ankita said, “Ek time aisa aaya ki sirf main bolti thi aur sab chup rehte the kyunki mere dialogues hote the (There was a time when only I spoke and everyone remained silent because there were only my dialogues). And I’m grateful ki mereko pehle se hi ek dum dialogues nahi aaye, mera goonga hi kam tha. Acha tha jo ki aankhon se baat karna tha, rona dhona tha (It was good that I didn’t have too many dialogues since the beginning, and I had less to speak. I just had to talk with my eyes and cry).”
She continued, “Jab Pavitra itne saalon tak chal paaya na, sach mein main sab ko le ke baithti thi ki chalo hum rehearsal karte hain. Kyunki agar ek ka scene bhi acha jaayega na toh humara hi show aage badh raha hai (When Pavitra was able to run for so long, I would sit with everyone and say let’s rehearse. If even one scene is liked, then our show is only going ahead).”
She stated, “Meri 8 ghante ki shift hoti thi. Main uske upar bhi rukti thi ki main dialogue deti hun aur cue dene ke liye. Kyun ki mera cue dena aur koi assistant dega, toh unn dono mein bahut farq hoga. (I had a shift of 8 hours. I used to stay even after that to give dialogue cues. If I give a cue and an assistant is giving the same, there will be a lot of difference).”
After making waves in the Bigg Boss 17 house, Ankita Lokhande will now be seen in Swatantra Veer Sawarkar with Randeep Hooda.
