Ankita has time and again played meaty characters on screen.
Be it Archana from the show 'Pavitra Rishta', Jhalkari bai in 'Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi" or her latest 'Swatantrya Veer Savarkar', where she essays an unsung hero and a courageous companion Yamunabai to Randeep's character, Ankita, has always enchanted the audience with her acting prowess.
Talking to IANS about picking such roles, Ankita said: "That comes naturally to me but I don't choose it purposely."
The film's producer Sandeep added that she is an actor with high caliber and hence she lands such strong roles.
Sandeep shared: "Producers like us or Ekta Kapoor, Kangana or Kamal Jain, we all know what kind of caliber she has as an actor. So, we come with those kinds of quality-driven, performance oriented roles to Ankita."
The producer revealed: "For this film, she did not charge a single rupee."
When asked why Ankita did not take any remuneration for the film, she said: "Because he came to me with the film. He is my very dear friend and there were a lot of things going on. Sandeep was already into a lot where he was looking for finance for the film and I was there for him."
