In addition to his work in Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, Sidharth Shukla is recognised for his impactful performances in various television shows and web series. He gained immense popularity for his portrayal of Shivraj Shekhar in Balika Vadhu. The actor also left a lasting impression with his character Agastya Rao in the web series Broken But Beautiful 3. Another notable role was Parth Bhanushali in Dil Se Dil Tak, opposite Rashami Desai.
In 2021, a year after he won the Bigg Boss 13 trophy, Sidharth Shukla tragically passed away due to cardiac arrest. The news of his untimely demise shocked everyone, Shehnaaz Gill, his co-contestant in BB and close friend, was deeply affected by the loss.
For those not aware, Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania was inspired by the classic Bollywood film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol. The Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt starrer not only captured the essence of DDLJ but also includes a scene where the lead characters, Humpty and Kavya, visit the iconic train station in Punjab, from where Raj and Simran start their beautiful journey.
