She participated in Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 4 and Comedy Circus and did an episodic for Ek Thi Naayka.[12][13]

Pavitra Rishta took a generation leap in 2013, and Lokhande also began playing Archana's granddaughter Ankita, along with her former role of Archana, until the series ended in 2014.[14]

Lokhande co-starred with Sushant Singh Rajput in Pavitra Rishta, and they began dating in 2010, Rajput proposed her in the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhlaja 4. In a 2016 interview, the couple even spoke of marrying each other.[15] However the same year couple parted their ways.


Film and web series debut (2017–2021)


After a two-year gap from acting and her separation from Rajput, there were reports that Lokhande was set for a movie debut with a role in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's period drama Padmaavat (2018).[16] However she left the movie, replying that she was not ready for film.[17]

The following year, speculation spread that she had been signed for Girish Malik's film Torbaaz along with Sanjay Dutt.[18] However, rumours proved to be untrue after Malik stated that Lokhande was not going to be involved with the film.[19]
