Ankita Lokhande remembers the late Sushant Singh Rajput on the occasion of 15 years of ‘Pavitra Rishta’.

TV queen Ankita Lokhande celebrated 15 years of Archana. The ‘Pavitra Rishta’ character made her superstar overnight. Ankita tried to break her previous record. But Archana left a forever mark in the audience’s hearts.

Remembering ‘Archana’, Ankita took to social media and penned a heartfelt emotion on completing 15 years of Pavitra Rishta. She also remembers the late Sushant Singh Rajput in her post. Fans showered empathy with the actress, as she had expressed missing the late actor and her best co-star.

In a long post, Ankita claimed no Jodi can beat Archana and Manav’s chemistry ever.

Check out what more Ankita said on her social media: “It’s not just 15 years of Archana, it’s also 15 years of Archana and Manav, a couple who personified love, marriage, understanding and companionship. They’re perfect. They’re what we call “Goals”. They taught me what perfect marriage means. I bet there’s no on-screen couple as real, sweet and iconic as Archana and Manav, and most of its credit goes to the audience who showered so much love on us. And of course, we could create that magic because of Ekta ma’am’s trust in us. Manav completed Archana. He was, is and always will be remembered whenever Archana will be mentioned because their Pavitra Rishta was as pure as my pavitra rishta with you all! Without his guidance, I wouldn’t have become what I am today. Without Manav, there’s no Archana. As much as it’s my celebration, it’s his too. We are proud of what you’ve achieved and the acting prowess you’ve shown. And remember, aasmaan me jab tak sitaare rahenge, hum ek doosre ke sahaare rahenge. Nazdeekiyaan ya ho dooriyaan, bas pyaar hi rahega darmiyaan…. Pavitra Rishta then now and forever ♥️
We miss you #Sushant

Archana’s post received 202k likes and 4k comments.

In another post Archana shared her experience on playing ‘Archana’s’ character. “15 years ago, I started my journey as Archana in Pavitra Rishta. Little did I know that even after years, I will continue to get so much love for my role, which has even become my identity. I sometimes feel I was destined to be Archana. I had her in me, and I continue to have her in me. She has taught me a lot about life.
I am forever indebted to @ektarkapoor @ek_ek_ekoo ma’am and @balajitelefilmslimited for giving me a role of a lifetime right in the beginning of my career. Main rahoon ya na rahoon, the love I have received, Archana and Pavitra Rishta has received from each one of you will keep me alive forever in your hearts, and I don’t think there’s anything more precious than that. But my journey wouldn’t be complete if I didn’t have Sushant’s support. I didn’t even know how to act when I started Pavitra Rishta. He taught me, and I will always be thankful for him. The show started a new kind of storytelling. Hindi television par Marathi culture ko dikhaya. Isse pehle kabhi koi aisa show aaya nahi tha. People could resonate with the show because of the innocence the show and the people involved in it had.

And last but not the least, I would like to thank the television industry for giving me so much love. My first brush with fandom and stardom happened because of a television show, and I am always going to be thankful for that❤️💕#15YrsOfAnkita #15YearsOfPavitraRishta #ITV #Ankita #AnkitaLokhande #Journey (Pavitra Rishta , Journey , ITV , 15 Years in Industry , 15 Years Anniversary )”
