Ektaa Kapoor delivered exciting news on June 8: her much-loved show “Broken But Beautiful” is returning for a fifth season. This announcement is particularly surprising as the last installment was the third season. Kapoor revealed that she is skipping the fourth season to honor the late actor Sidharth Shukla. She made this announcement through her latest Instagram post.
On June 8, Ektaa Kapoor took to social media to share a video compilation of the previous seasons of “Broken But Beautiful.” The series, which has become a beloved fixture on OTT platforms, initially starred Vikrant Massey and Harleen Sethi in its first two seasons. The third season featured Sidharth Shukla and Sonia Rathee in the lead roles. Kapoor announced her decision to skip season 4 and go directly to season 5, explaining that some love stories are meant to remain unfinished.
In her Instagram post, Ektaa Kapoor wrote:
“Had to post this yest! Better late than never! My this year begins with love …and a love story! As I begin writing another story of love, longing, losing, and healing, there will be questions about why no season four! With @realsidharthshukla gone, there will be no season 4 in his memory and with the belief that some love stories don’t end, they transcend…now writing another love story, another season!!! #brokenbutbeautiful season 5.”
For those unfamiliar, the late actor Sidharth Shukla, who gained immense popularity after winning Bigg Boss 13, was highly cherished for his role in “Broken But Beautiful” Season 3. After his untimely death in 2021, the show’s future was uncertain. Today’s announcement brings joy to fans of the series and admirers of Sidharth Shukla.
Following Ektaa Kapoor’s post, actors like Gauahar Khan, Kushal Tandon, and Paras Kalnawat, among others, expressed their excitement by dropping red heart emojis in the comment section.
