Ankita squashes Rhea's claim of Sushant being claustrophobic

Sushant Singh Rajput's former girlfriend Ankita Lokhande has debunked the claims of Rhea Chakraborty, who stated the late actor had claustrophobia. Sharing a video of Sushant operating a flight simulator, Ankita questioned Rhea's statement.

Mumbai: Questioning what is 'claustrophobia', actor Ankita Lokhande on Thursday shared an old video of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput on social media where he is operating an aircraft by himself.

The relevance of the post is in connection with one of the statements actor Rhea Chakraborty made during an exclusive interview with a media channel.

Earlier during an interview, Chakraborty claimed that the Kai Po Che! actor felt 'claustrophobic' in a flight.

Slamming the claims, Rajput's former girlfriend, Lokhande shared a video on Twitter and wrote: "Is this #claustrophobia?"
