Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’s former actor Gurucharan Singh recently shared his reaction to the claims that said that he is unprofessional on the sets of the show. The actor said that he was very angry reading such reports about him. He further called it a false allegation. Singh also shared that he first called the show’s producer Asit Modi but his call was unavailable. He then asked the creative head about the same who declined that he was unprofessional on the sets.
In an interview with ETimes, Gurucharan said “One news report claimed I was very unprofessional on the ‘Taarak Mehta’ set. I was very angry after reading that. I have dedicated 13-14 years to this show and have worked wholeheartedly. Even when you have a broken back and are in the hospital, you are still working. To have such things written about you during such a time is very upsetting. Spirituality helped me through it. I calmly read the report, which stated that a ‘source’ had said this, but no name was mentioned.”
“At the time, Asit Bhai was unavailable, so I called the creative head, Sohail, directly and asked if anything like this had ever happened to him. He said no. I then told him that he would have to do a live session with me and confirm that I am a professional actor. Otherwise, I would assume the news originated from him. Sohail agreed, did a live session with me, and stated the truth. That matter ended there. For me, my work is my worship. You cannot falsely accuse someone,” he added.
Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah has been on air on Sony SAB since 2008. The show stars Dilip Joshi, Amit Bhatt, Mandar Chandwadkar, Munmun Dutta, Tanuj Mahashabde, Sonalika Joshi, Shyam Pathak, Ambika Ranjankar and Sunayana Fozdar in key roles.
