Ankita Lokhande feeling uneasy -Article

Ankita Lokhande aka Archana of Pavtira Rishta (Zee TV) is in a fix. Why you may ask?

Well, this talented Maharashtrian actress is not happy playing mother to girls of her age, post the leap which happened a while ago in this Balaji show.

"It just does not look convincing enough on screen," she quips. So what can you do? "Nothing, as we can't reverse age on screen." However, she is not considering moving out of the project as well. "I am very loyal to Pavitra Ristha that has made me what I am today," she observes.

But she does leave a certain window open for the later action when asked would you not want to move on after playing the same character for three and a half years, she answers, "I don't know."

As of now, though she seems content playing Archana, she further shares, "I am also looking at Marathi films. These days the films in my mother tongue have been very interesting and have a lot of scope for actors to emote."

She however adds that she has no yet signed the dotted line on anything but might do so soon. Here, Ankita seems to be quite lucky that Balaji Telefilms has not put paid to her wishes to do films. "They are quite okay with my desire to dabble in films as well and would accommodate my dates accordingly," she maintains.

She however makes it clear that she does not want to do Hindi films. "I am quite happy with TV and regional films." We wonder what is the real reason behind it, is her boyfriend Sushant Singh Rajput not comfortable with the kind of exposure (as in skin show) that is required in Hindi films? "Why should he have any problem' for he himself is doing a Hindi film (Kai Po Che)," she ends.

i think she has already materialize a marathi film deal that is why everything is set right from balaji who i guess has already managed her dates... it is normal for balaji they manage dates of almost all the actors working in their shows as most of them working for movies too...

exactly ashu... in marathi film industry there are really good scripts and damn good actors too...by doing marathi films she can easily manage tv too... so there should be no problem too... ANKITA is extremely popular in Maharashtra

@Blue: At first I thought she meant to say why should he have any problem when he himself is doing skin show in his film.🤣 (Remember the shirtless running pic😛😉😆)

Honestly speaking, I'd rather much prefer seeing Ankita in good Marathi movies than in flowerpot roles in Hindi films. I mean, not even many of the top actresses get good author backed roles. And after seeing her as Archana, where practically the whole story revolved around her, I wouldn't sort of want to see her in small inconsequent roles where she only has to sing and dance and look beautiful. I think she's capable of much more than that. (Will add though that it is my dream to see Sushita together in a romantic action movie like Ek Tha Tiger. I loved that movie, don't ask me why.😳)

I hope Ankita gets a good Marathi movie soon. I like watching Marathi movies- they don't have the same run of the mill stuff and in the few I've watched, the characters were sketched beautifully and the story left me thinking.👍🏼
