Without giving any reason, they withdrew me from many projects. Most of my work which was in the finishing stage was also closed. I lost so much. But that doesn't mean I gave up. I have been doing something. This year also my film 'Badhaai Do' came out. There are some other projects too," Ankit was quoted saying.
