The Broken News starring Sonali Bendre and Shriya Pilgaonkar was released on ZEE5 on June 10. Let's find out the Janta's reviews!
The Broken News is the Indian adaptation of the British series Press. The eight-episode newsroom drama is about two channels competing with one another. The first one, named Josh 24/7, is portrayed as India's No.1 news channel but doesn't really bother to check its facts. It has Dipankar Sanyal played by Jaideep Ahlawat as the face of the show. And the second one is Awaaz Bharti which might be struggling with viewership but is run by Ameena Qureshi played by Sonali Bendre who believes in putting out honest journalism on her channel. She also as her deputy Radha Bhargava played by Shriya Pilgaonkar, a budding star in the field of journalism who wants to explore anything and everything. Produced by BBC Studios India, the show is written by Sambit Mishra and directed by Vinay Waikul.
The Broken News depicts how the media is responsible for influencing us and shaping our opinions on various worldly affairs in today's time. The two news channels battle with each other for TRP, power, and making money and co-incidentally have their studios in the same building. The dynamic group of journalists navigates through their struggles, lies, and ambitions while trying to put their best foot forward as a news reporter.

#TheBrokenNews is a must watch.. streaming in @ZEE5India ... Behind the scene of news editing in a news channel is quite interesting ...
@ShriyaP 's notable performance, in the two powerful series, #guiltymindsonprime and #TheBrokenNews has left a mark on the viewers. She looks very promising and sustainable as an actor. Wishing her good luck. And hoping to see her more.๐ค
I have watched this web series truly very good. A lot of respect for the journalist in todays times. Just watched The Broken News on ZEE5.....#TheBrokenNewspic.twitter.com/IMq0fQivM8
The problem with #TheBrokenNews is that it sets out to be a newsroom drama and a thriller and fails at both. Anyone who has even done an internship in any newsroom will tell you, that's definitely not how they work. Especially in India.
#TheBrokenNews on @ZEE5India Deals with the internal battles between media, conflict of ideal journalism with TRP craving big chairs. Starts with a normal mood but gets better and best as it moves forward. pic.twitter.com/ezXYDBpvTY
If there's a single journalist like Radha Bhargava in each news channel, then the face of the media of this country would have been surely different. Dialogues were screaming from newsroom. Glad that such content is being made on this profession ๐@ShriyaP#TheBrokenNews#news
Finished watching #TheBrokenNews mst say Makers had done a Fabulous job in portraying Reality Of Some Media Portals..Some Media Channels Only work as PR or they only care abt TRP & how they made News A Cooked Story & how they Treat Public Figures as their Asset For TRP...
#TheBrokenNews on #zee5 is a good watch. @JaideepAhlawat continues his brilliance on the OTT platform and @ShriyaP does well to hold her own against him. A second season should be in the offing.
Aint that the truth??! Trial by media has become the biggest tamasha. The public want to be judge, jury and executioner when they have no business being so - and the media enables that!
