The Pavitra Rishta actress also added that there's nothing special about her and Kangana's story, but their vibe matches, and the latter says that the former is just like her. Ankita can be quoted as saying:
"Actually maine and Kangana ne kabhi socha nahi tha ki hum itne close ho jayegage but jab hum Manikarnika pe mile, jab Kangana ne actually mujhe direct karna chalu kiya tab se hamara wo foundation aur strong banta gaya. Kangana aur meri kahani aise kuch hai nahi but woh hamesha dekh k mujhe bolti hai, ‘Yaar ye toh hamare jaise hai, yaar pagal, ekdum pagal.’ I think wo vibe hai meri aur Kangana ki jo bhout ache se match karti hai."
In the same interview, Ankita Lokhande added that Kangana Ranaut was extremely worried about whatever had been going on in the former's life during her stint in Bigg Boss 17. Ankita stated how Kangana called her mom and talked about the same. Speaking more about how Kangana motivates her, Ankita shared that after coming out of the BB house, she had a long chat with the Queen actress, and the latter provided the former with some tips about how to deal with stuff. Ankita further mentioned that Kangana even watched her interviews and shared how proud she was of the Pavitra Rishta actress. Ankita stated:
"I want to say this, mai Bigg Boss me thi, tab bhi Kangana me meri mumma se baat ki. And jo bhi meri life me chal raha tha, she was very worried about everything. Kal meri koi interview dekh ke, she messaged me, ‘This is how I want to see Ankita. I am very proud of you.’ Mujhe Kangana hamesha motivate kiya hai."

However, it was Kangana who came in support of Ankita's saas. Sharing a photo of Ranjana Jain, Kangana penned a long note and stated how people couldn't see that the diva's MIL was rooting for her to win.
