If sources close to Ankita are to be believed, the actress didn't want to age any further in Pavitra Rishta. Her love story in the show progressed towards the younger generation, making her a 50-year-old mother with three time-leaps — of four years, 18 years and six months. The actress, who is currently on a break, hardly looked the part. With no age spots, crows feet or even wrinkles — the common signs of aging — Ankita as Archana looked exactly the same age as her daughter Purvi, played by Asha Negi. While Archana may have aged in the show, Ankita refused to bow down to the demands of the makeup artistes or the track.
