Having started his career with Udaariyaann on Colors, Ankit Gupta was a hit and his pairing with Priyanka Chahar Choudhary was much loved. The duo later stepped into the Bigg Boss house in its 16th season and their real life rapport was loved too.

Post that, Ankit was seen in Junooniyatt. It was a while back that there was news about Ankit’s hospitalisation too. While he is better now, in a vlog taken by Farah Khan for her channel, he shared some interesting insights.

Farah had visited Ankit’s house and Sajid Khan also made a surprise visit.

They candidly spoke and Ankit mentioned that he turned vegetarian after being hospitalised. Farah, when she visited him, planned to cook tawa chicken. While the dish looked delicious, Ankit mentioned that he does not consume non-veg anymore.

Farah was surprised by his reaction. Ankit told her that since she has cooked it with so much love, he will eat it.

Ankit, in the vlog mentioned that it was not a religious reason for which he had turned vegetarian but it was a medical emergency.

He shared that he had a panic attack and a gastric attack due to which he was admitted to the hospital.
