MUMBAI: Dilip Joshi aka Jethalal shared his heartfelt desire as ‘Mumbai Cha Seth’ visited the Gokuldham society on Tuesday to give darshan to all the residents. For the first time in India, Ganpati Bappa is traveling across Mumbai on a special open double-decker bus, blessing everyone along the way.
Speaking exclusively to IANS, when asked, "Is there any problem that Ganpati Bappa has solved for you?"
Refusing to spill the beans, Dilip shared, "How can we share our personal problems on live television like this? We have told our issues to Bappa, in the ear of his mousal (His vahan)."
Jumping in, 'Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah' maker, Asit Modi cheekily added: "Daya Bhabhi should come now, we have told that problem to Bappa."
Ever since Disha Vakani, who played lovable and quirky Dayaben Gada took a break from the show back in 2017 after the birth of her daughter, it has been speculated several times that Daya Ben is coming back to the Gokuldham society; however, every time it turned out to be a false alarm.
The admirers of the show have been constantly requesting to bring the beloved character back to the show.
Previously, during a media interaction, Asit said that Disha left a lasting impact with her presence in the show, admitting that even though it has been eight years since she was last seen on "Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashman", her character continues to live in the hearts of the audience.
Revealing if Daya Ben will be making a comeback on the show, Asit shared that it is more than just about bringing back a character—it is about finding the right time, the right story, and the right moment to reintroduce her to the show. Asit stated that Disha's role ended up overpowering the character.
Premiered on July 28, 2008, on Sony SAB, "Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashman" has been adaptated from the hilarious column 'Duniya Ne Undha Chasma' by prominent writer Tarak Mehta for the magazine Chitralekha.
