"It will take time but eventually, I'll come out of it."
Ankita Lokhande stated that she needs to “recover” from everything she went through on Bigg Boss 17, adding that it took a toll on her mental health.
She explained that she has no regrets about showing her true self on the show.
Ankita said that when a person is on the reality show, they have no idea what is going on in the outside world.
The actress elaborated: “I’ve been there (on Bigg Boss) with all my heart.
“Whatever emotions I felt, it all came out. I would often say I’ve shown my true self on the show, I’m not hiding anything.
“Even if I tried for a controversy to not happen, it happened.
“I was tired of myself, (but) it’s okay. It’s a part of me. I can’t help it, I was what I was. No regrets.
“But when I learnt about my eviction, I was quite okay with that. I was not upset, I was shocked.
“I thought I had a fandom that was supporting me but I think somewhere it was lacking. I have enjoyed the journey.”
Admitting that the show affected her mental health, Ankita continued:
“I feel I need to recover from that because it’s taken a toll on my mental health.
“I was never a deep thinker but the situations were such that I became one.
“I’m trying to recover, and understand a few things of what has happened in my life.”
“It will take time but eventually, I’ll come out of it.
“Vicky is there, my family, my mom and everybody from Vicky’s family is also there but eventually it’s about how I take things and move on. I’m trying to cope with things.”
Ankita Lokhande entered Bigg Boss 17 with her husband Vicky Jain.
The pair were constantly hitting headlines for their arguments on the show.
Her mother-in-law Ranjana Jain also made some explosive statements.
Speaking about her mother-in-law, Ankita said:
“To date, people have made their assumptions, they have said what they had to, I am not going to stop them since whatever happened that time was in front of everyone.
“It is a family matter for me, if certain things were told to me, I know her intention was not that.
“I have stayed with these people, I know how much they love me, but on Bigg Boss, mumma got a little emotional.
“My mother-in-law is just like me, she will tell you things to your face, but her intentions were not bad.”
