Bade Achhe Lagte Hain Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2 Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 3 |
Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 4 is an Indian Hindi-language romantic drama television series that aired on Sony TV from 16 June to 19 September 2025. [1] Produced by Ekta Kapoor under Balaji Telefilms, it is the fourth installment of the Bade Achhe Lagte Hain franchise. [2] It stars Harshad Chopda and Shivangi Joshi as Rishabh and Bhagya. [3]
Bhagyashree Iyer is an independent woman who lives in Delhi. She heads Tattvaa and for the last five years has been living away from her parents. She left her home to marry her boyfriend Nikhil after her parents refused to meet him. Nikhil rejected her since he was only after her father's money. The betrayal left her with trust issues and no faith in love.
Rishabh Kapoor is a cheerful and happy-go-lucky man struggling to make ends meet. He was in need of a job and got one at Tattvaa. Bhagyashree learns that her parents, who never learned what happened five years ago, are coming to visit her and her husband. Her friend Nitya advises her to marry before they arrive to portray a happy married life.
She meets Vikram Bhalla, head of Tattvaa's west zone and agrees to marry him. Rishabh exposes him as a fraud and two-timer, thus saving Bhagya from being manipulated. Her parents assume Rishabh is her husband and the two maintain the facade. Rishabh continues to support the Iyer family while pretending to be Bhagya’s husband, though her father Vinayak and sister-in-law remain sceptical. Suspecting Rishabh’s late-night outings, Vinayak once follows him with the family and finds him with a woman in a hotel room. Bhagya hastily identifies the woman as their colleague Shraddha, unaware that it is actually Miya. Rishabh later admits to Bhagya that Miya is his girlfriend, which fuels her jealousy, and he appears to deliberately provoke her reactions. Bhagya later misinterprets his meeting with her sister Revathy and informs Miya, not realising that Rishabh and Revathy are secretly working together against her. Rishabh only pretended closeness with Miya to gain her trust and expose her for blackmailing Revathy.
Miya later imprisons Rishabh in a cold storage room, where Bhagya is also trapped when she tries to rescue him. After they are saved and Miya is arrested, Bhagya’s parents send the couple to Mumbai to recover from the ordeal. During the trip they grow closer, and at a birthday party Bhagya encounters her ex-boyfriend, who attempts to taunt her until Rishabh defends her. As they spend more time together, Bhagya eventually confesses her feelings to Rishabh. However, it is later revealed that Rishabh had his own plan and was hiding the truth about his identity.
Rishabh turns out to be the infamous Rishabh Kapoor, a rich businessman and he came into Bhagya's life hoping to earn her trust so he can avenge his father Gautam Kapoor who is in jail because of her false testimony. Despite his mission, Rishabh ends up growing feelings for Bhagya making him feel guilty and conflicted. Naysa, Rishabh's former wife, who is still obsessed with Rishabh, is revealed to be Bhagya's boss. Rishabh finds out that Bhagya believed the victims who were paid by Naysa to speak up against Gautam and gave the testimony. She did not know he was innocent and this was a setup.
Naysa later discovers that the guy Bhagya loves is Rishabh and exposes the truth in front of everyone. She reveals that Rishabh is a Kapoor and lies that they are still married. Bhagya is left shattered, heartbroken and asks Rishabh to leave her life. Her pain eclipses the mistake she made of giving a false testimony against an innocent man without checking. She goes to court and corrects her mistake but fails to realise the magnitude of how it destroyed a family.
Bhagya has hardened her heart and refuses to trust anyone in life. She focuses on work, staying healthy and being with her family. Bhagya left Tattvaa and now works in Kalos, a company whose boss is later revealed to be Rishabh. He also moves next door to Bhagya to win her trust back. Despite many people trying to frame them for wrongdoings in order to separate them, the two stood by each other and eventually get married.
