Mumbai: Sushant Singh Rajput’s ex-girlfriend, actor Ankita Lokhande has reportedly approached producer Ekta Kapoor to make the second season of popular TV serial ‘Pavitra Rishta’ as a tribute to the late actor, said a report in Mumbai Mirror. The duo was the lead pair in the TV serial.
“The show was close to Sushant’s heart as it gave him the platform to scale new heights and both Ekta and Ankita feel that a new season will be the best tribute to the deceased actor,” the report said quoting a source.
Ekta reportedly liked the idea and will brainstorm with her writers to see how to take the story forward. “Ekta has spearheaded several sequels on TV, including ‘Hum Paanch’, ‘Kasautii Zindagii Kay’ and ‘Naagin’. It was Ankita who approached Ekta with the idea and since Pavitra Rishta is a special show for her too, she immediately agreed. She will sit with her team of writers and explore how to take the daily soap forward,” said the report.
