"He would skip studies to go for modelling and photography assignments and my uncle used to scold him," a relative of Ankit Saxena reportedly told TOI. "At the end of the day, he would hand over the earnings to his mother."

Delhi boy Ankit Saxena was like any other youth, weaving dreams for a bright future, but his life was snuffed out too early. According to a TOI report, he wanted to build a big house for his family and a studio for himself. Ankit also loved body-building and was known to have been possessive about his bike.

The 23-year-old was reportedly murdered on Thursday, 1 February, by his alleged girlfriend's family who did not approve of their relationship.

A photographer who enjoyed modelling, Ankit wanted to make it big in Bollywood. He even had his own YouTube channel called 'Awaara Boy.' Besides wedding photo-shoots, he also shot music videos and spoofs, reported TOI. These he uploaded on his Youtube Channel.
