It’s been four years since noted TV actor Sidharth Shukla left, yet the void still feels fresh in the Television industry. On his fourth death anniversary, fans are flooding social media with memories of the actor, videos, old clips, and heartfelt posts. The love around him hasn’t faded, not even a little.
Born on December 12, 1980, Sidharth’s story didn’t start in television. He was a model first. In fact, he won the title of World’s Best Model, beating more than 40 contestants worldwide, a moment that gave him a push into the spotlight.
Television, though, is where he truly became a star. His role as Shivraj Shekhar in Balika Vadhu made him a household name. People connected with his simplicity and strong screen presence.
From there, he moved into reality shows. Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 6, Khatron Ke Khiladi 7, hosting shows like Savdhaan India and India’s Got Talent.
He was everywhere. But Bigg Boss 13 changed everything. Sidharth’s fiery personality, his strong gameplay, and even his softer moments turned him into one of the most popular winners the show has ever seen.

Bollywood came calling in 2014 with Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, where he played Angad Bedi alongside Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan. Later, the digital world embraced him with Broken But Beautiful 3, which ended up being his final project, and a massive hit.
Of course, you can’t talk about Sidharth without mentioning Shehnaaz Gill. Their bond from Bigg Boss 13 became a phenomenon in itself. The two appeared together again on Dance Deewane 3, sharing the stage with Madhuri Dixit , a moment fans still replay as it was his last stage appearance.
