Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
untimely
death
has
affected
his
family,
friends
and
fans.
On
July
14,
a
month
after
the
actor's
death,
many
people
close
to
the
actor
had
remembered
him.
As
per
the
latest
report,
his
ex-girlfriend,
Ankita
Lokhande
approached
Balaji
Telefilms
head
Ekta
Kapoor
for
the
second
season
of
the
hit
TV
show
Pavitra
Rishta.
A
source
close
to
the
development
told
Mumbai
Mirror,
"The
show
was
close
to
Sushant's
heart
as
it
gave
him
the
platform
to
scale
new
heights
and
both
Ekta
and
Ankita
feel
that
a
new
season
will
be
the
best
tribute
to
the
deceased
actor."
The
report
also
stated
that
Ankita
approached
Ekta
with
the
idea
and
the
latter
liked
it.
It
is
being
said
that
the
producer
will
brainstorm
with
her
writers
to
see
how
to
take
the
story
forward.
The
source
further
revealed,
"Ekta
has
spearheaded
several
sequels
on
TV,
including
Hum
Paanch,
Kasautii
Zindagii
Kay
and
Naagin.
It
was
Ankita
who
approached
Ekta
with
the
idea
and
since
Pavitra
Rishta
is
a
special
show
for
her
too,
she
immediately
agreed.
She
will
sit
with
her
team
of
writers
and
explore
how
to
take
the
daily
soap
forward."
It
has
to
be
recalled
that
Ekta
recently
announced
Pavitra
Rishta
fund
for
mental
awareness
in
memory
of
the
late
actor.
For
the
uninitiated,
Sushant
and
Ankita
became
popular
with
Ekta's
show
Pavitra
Rishta,
which
had
nearly
1,500
episodes.
The
show
was
premiered
in
2009.
Ankita
and
Sushant
were
dating
during
Pavitra
Rishta
days
and
were
all
set
to
marry,
but
they
called
it
quits.
The
actors
had
moved
on
in
their
lives.
Meanwhile,
on
one-month
anniversary
of
the
actor's
death,
Ekta
shared
an
emotional
post
and
posted
a
collage
of
throwback
pictures
while
Ankita
shared
a
picture
from
her
prayer
room
of
a
lit
diya
and
called
Sushant
'child
of
God'.
