Doubt about observer updated method triggers if no column was touched

I am using Lumen with "laravel/lumen-framework": "^8.0" in composer.

I just found my observer's updated event is not triggering if the new $data with update method $model->update($data) has same values as old one in the db. But, if the $data has even a one single column which is not same as old one then only the event triggers successfully. is this true.. if yes how can i force to fire the event.

This is how i update the data. the data comes from frontend.

$vendorBill = VendorBill::findOrFail($id);

$vendorBill->update($data);

My Solution

I just used the alternative to this by using saved method instead of updated. in that case it will be triggered even if the new data is same as db.
