Life has been full of ups and downs for Sonali Bendre. Time and again, she has proved that she's a fighter.
Bendre is all set to make her digital debut. She will be seen in Zee5's upcoming series The Broken News, which is an Indian adaptation of the popular British series Press. Keeping her company will be Jaideep Ahlawat of Paatal Lok and Shriya Pilgaonkar of Guilty Minds fame, along with Taaruk Raina, Aakash Khurana, Indraneil Sengupta, and others.
The Broken News is directed by Vinay Waiku, who recently directed the crime-thriller series 'Aranyak,' which starred Raveena Tandon.
As per the creator of the show, the plot revolves around the rivalry of two Mumbai-based news channels. One - Awaaz Bharati consistently promises ethical, independent journalism. Josh 24/7 News, on the other hand, provides sensationalist news and is intrusive to its subjects.
Bendre broke this news by sharing a teaser for her upcoming OTT series in a post. She captioned it as, ¡°It feels so good to be back on set, back to the creative process, interacting with my co-actors and director¡ bringing life to a character. I¡¯m so happy to make my OTT debut with @zee5, we¡¯ve done so much together and it feels like family. I love the concept of this show from the get-go and am so proud of how it¡¯s turned out¡. Can¡¯t wait for you all to see it.¡±

In the comments section, Abhishek Bachchan said, "All the best, Bhabs," with a smiley emoji, and her co-star from The Broken News said, "Ganpati Bappa Morya," with folded hands and a red heart emoji.
¡®HIJACKED¡¯ and ¡®BREAKING NEWS¡¯ flash at the beginning of the teaser. It then cuts to Dipankar Sanayal, played by Jaideep Ahlawat, who is ready to seize the audience's attention with 'tadakti-bhadakti' news. The teaser then introduces Amina Qureshi, played by Sonali Bendre, as another newsreader who vows to share accurate information without distorting the truth.
In the teaser, Sonali can be heard saying, "Sach dikhana Hamari zimmadari hai." Radha Bhargava, played by Shriya Pilgaonkar, also appears in the teaser, asking if viewers want to watch 'Sansani ya Sach¡¯.
Amina Qureshi and Radha Bhargava are Awaaz Bharati news reporters who promise accurate information, and Dipankar Sanayal is a Josh 24/7 News reporter who believes in sensationalism.
