Ankita Lokhande opens up about the ‘toughest chapter of her life’ from 2016; says, “A year that tested me and broke me quietly”

Ankita Lokhande is making headlines for reportedly returning to Laughter Chefs 3 along with husband Vicky Jain. She recently hopped on the ‘2016 trend’ and shared a heartfelt note. Ankita shared a long post mentioning how 2016 has been one of the toughest years of her life. She recalled her dogs, who passed away that year.

While sharing a series of old pictures from 2016, she recalled memories from that year. She wrote, “2016 ki yaadein. The toughest chapter of my life. A year that tested me, broke me quietly, and changed me forever. And today, I only feel grateful and proud of how far I have come from there to here. My first ever Instagram post… Realising I’ve always been a family girl… then, now, forever. Scotch — my biggest support, my strength, my dog, my constant, my home.”




She further wrote, “Thanking him always for being there through every low, every tear, every silent breakdown. I miss him dearly, my biggest happiness and the only one that year who kept me going. Missing Aajoba, grateful for Aai’s endless love. The thinnest waist era (still holding on, hehe). Endless photoshoots. Quiet innocence… Obsessed with grids, details, and moments that felt small but meant everything.”


Ankita further shared, “Saree love remains always. Angel chairs, backless glow, and all those bittersweet memories. Somewhere in that chaos, I found myself again slowly and honestly. This 2016 throwback is a reminder to pause, look back, and appreciate yourself first. You survived. You grew. And you kept your heart intact.”


On the work front, Ankita is best known for her time on Pavitra Rishta. She is all set to be seen on Laughter Chefs 3 along with husband Vicky Jain.
