Sidharth died on September 2 due to a heart attack. He and Shehnaz grew close to each other when they were in the Bigg Boss house, though they never officially acknowledged being a couple. Sidharth later won that same season in 2020.
The duo also appeared together on reality shows such as Bigg Boss OTT and Dance Deewane 3 as guests and even featured in a few music videos together. They were recently also seen in Habit’s music video, a song sung by Shreya Ghoshal.
Also featuring Arko Pravo Mukherjee’s voice, Habit was an ode to Sidharth, and it was previously titled Adhura. Shreya had announced the release of the song by sharing a heartfelt tribute for the late actor on her Instagram handle.
After Sidharth’s death, Shehnaaz was seen in her debut movie, Honsla Rakh with Diljit Dosanjh. The film has been successful in multiple markets.
