Ankita added that suddenly, people knew her as 'bhabhi', and she was confused at what was happening to her. Earlier, she was the face of every advertisement, and people would respect and wonder how she was in every project. However, people started thinking that she was happy to be married and didn't want to work. Ankita called it a big transition for her because Karan was a big star.
During the same podcast, Ankita revealed that she recently heard the strangest rumour from a friend that she was separating from Karan Patel. And it is the actress who appointed the lawyer.
