Sonali Bendre in The Broken News
In the current scheme of things, it doesn’t come as a surprise when a true journalist questions the motivation of the profession and the outcome. In The Broken News, editor Amina Qureshi’s world spectrum shifts when her pillar of support Radha, played by Shriya Pilgaonkar, gets arrested, leaving her vulnerable. Sonali Bendre explored this vulnerability in the second edition of the hit ZEE5 series.
After embodying the epitome of strength in the first edition, Bendre had to showcase the inner turmoil of her character in the second instalment. “The season starts with Radha still behind bars, which shocks Amina. She assumed Radha would be released quickly, but Dipankar’s [Jaideep Ahlawat] campaign delayed proceedings. This situation shows Amina that the world is changing fast, and it makes her doubt if truth really has the power to make a difference anymore. She questions her effectiveness as a journalist and wonders if she has lost touch [with the current pulse]. The season [is also about] her search for answers and exploring her vulnerable side,” explains the actor.
