Talks were on with Sidharth Shukla for Broken But Beautiful 4, had planned a happy ending, reveal makers

Sarita added, “I cannot imagine Broken but Beautiful 4 without Sidharth Shukla. It is said, ‘It’s hard to turn the page when you know someone won’t be in the next chapter, but the story must go on.’ It’s most true in this industry. However, it’s too soon to even think about it. Broken but Beautiful 3 was his digital debut. Unfortunately, it will forever be remembered as his last release. The song has ended. But the melody lingers on.”

Director Priyanka Ghose recalled that Sidharth had “livewire energy” when he was on the set but despite all the fun, he was always “super observant.” She added, “He never missed a single thing that happened on set, even if it didn’t involve him. He was someone who could make everyone around him comfortable. However, his focus was unshakeable. Having him on set was full of positivity and he was always my support system.”

Ghose called Shukla one of her “closest friends.” “I am the one who is broken, now that I am left without one of my closest friends, creative collaborator and, a constant guide, while he shall always remain beautiful,” she said.
