During an earlier episode, Vicky Jain mentioned Ankita Lokhande's past relationship with late actor, Sushant Singh Rajput and admitted that he had taken a lot of heat from it but never told anything to her. However, after hearing this, Ankita immediately told Vicky that she respects him and his family a lot for everything they have done for her. He interrupted Ankita again and shared his disappointment after hearing that he didn't support her. He said:
"When I came to stay with you guys, did I stay like a rich damaad or like a son? I also adapted myself to your and your family's lifestyle. When I came into a relationship with you, your past relationship which is famous on national television between Sushant and you. I had to bear the brunt of all of that. I took all that on me. If you had an objection then you wouldn't have decided to marry me. You took this decision on your own. I have always been there with your whole family."
