Mouni Roy also shared an old memory of the two, writing: “Do you remember?”

Dear Ankita, with each passing day a thought haunts me again and again. Kaash … I would have liked … We could have tried even harder, we could have stopped him, we could have begged him! Even when the two of you parted ways, you only prayed for his happiness and success … Your love was pure. It was special. You still haven’t removed her name from your house’s nameplate❤️ I miss those days when the three of us stayed together in Lokhandwala as a family, we shared so many moments that make me cry today … cook together, eat together, ac ka paani girna, our special mutton bhaat, our long journeys to uttan, lonavala or Goa! Our crazy holi! Those laughs that we shared, those sensitive phases of life when we were there for each other, you more than anyone. The things you did to make Sushant smile. Even today, I believe that you alone were made for each other. You are both true love. These thoughts, these memories hurt my heart … how to get them back! I want them to come back! I want “the three of us” back! Remember the Malpua !? And how he asked for mutton curry from my mother as a little child! I know only you could have saved him. I wish you both got married the way we dreamed. You could have saved him if he just let you be there … You were his girlfriend, his wife, his mother, his best friend forever. I love you Ankita. I hope I never lose a friend like you. I can’t take it.
