After dating for close to six years, reports of trouble in their relationship have started surfacing, though three months ago Sushant had announced he would tie the knot with the 31-year-old TV actress in December.
Both Sushant and Ankita did not respond to SMSes and phone calls.
Sushant, 30 and Ankita began dating while shooting for Ekta Kapoor's drama "Pavitra Rishta" in 2009. This is not the first time that such reports have come out.
Recently, there were reports that Arbaaz Khan and Malaika Arora Khan were heading for divorce, thus ending their 17-year-old marriage.
Prior to this, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli split up, ending their two-year courtship.
The 27-year-old actress maintained a stoic silence on the breakup, but Kohli apparently unfollowed her on Twitter and Instagram and then, uploaded, deleted and re-uploaded a photograph of himself, originally captioned, 'Heartbroken'.
After dating each other for six-long years and living together for a year, Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif called it quits too.
Earlier this year, Farhan Akthar and his wife of 15 years, Adhuna Akhtar announced their decision to separate "mutually and amicably".
Farhan, 42, is the son of veteran writer-lyricist Javed Akhtar and his former wife Honey Irani, and Adhuna, who is six years older to the "Rock On!!" actor, is a celebrity hairstylist.
They exchanged wedding vows in 2000 and have two daughters together named Shakya and Akira.
Pulkit Samrat and wife Shweta Rohira also separated last month after less than a year of marriage.
