Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah Tops TRP Charts, Beats Anupamaa
TMKOC has beaten Rupali Ganguly's Anupamaa to clinch the first spot in the list and become the most-watched show of this week. Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, the longest-running Indian comedy series, continues to win hearts with its signature humour and strong portrayal of community and family values. Since its premiere in 2008, the show has remained a fan favourite and now, it has reclaimed the number one spot on the TRP charts. That's right! TMKOC has surpassed Rupali Ganguly's popular daily soap Anupamaa to become the most-watched show of the week. Interestingly, the current 'Bhootni 2.0" storyline seems to have worked wonders for the show's ratings — and that too without the presence of its main lead, Jethalal (played by Dilip Joshi). The eerie, suspenseful twist has brought a refreshing change to the otherwise light-hearted tone of TMKOC. For long-time fans, the ghostly theme sparked nostalgia, reminding them of earlier haunted episodes that left the Gokuldham Society in similar spooky chaos. Riding high on the success of the show, producer Asit Kumar Modi expressed his happiness and said, 'TMKOC is not just a show—it's a team effort, a shared dream. I believe in the power of storytelling rooted in values, and none of this would be possible without the dedication of our writers, cast, crew and the affection of our fans." The absence of Dilip Joshi and Munmun Dutta aka Jethalal and Babita Ji in the current plot left the users speculating that both of them have decided to quit the show. As for the current plot, every member of the Gokuldham society is on holiday in a haunted cottage. While other characters, such as Bapu ji, Popatlal, and Sodhi, have joined Taarak Mehta and Anjali on their vacation, Jethalal and Babita Ji have been absent. This has left everyone wondering if Dilip Joshi and Munmun Dutta are planning to leave. According to ABP News, the show's production house has confirmed that Munmun Dutta and Dilip Joshi are still a part of the show. While the current plotline suggests that Jethalal is on a business trip with his colleagues, Babita and Iyer are believed to be vacationing in Mahabaleshwar. The show features Dilip Joshi, Munmun Dutta, Mandar Chandwadkar, Sonalika Joshi, Amit Bhatt and Shyam Pathak among others in the leads. First Published:

Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah: Dilip Joshi, Munmun Dutta Quit Asit Modi's Show?
Last Updated: Several viral posts on Instagram claim that since Dilip Joshi and Munmun Dutta have been missing from the current plot, it might be possible they are planning to quit the show. Who does not know Jethalal and Babita ji? The iconic characters, played by Dilip Joshi and Munmun Dutta respectively in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, are widely loved by the audience. However, the current plot in the show doesn't feature the favourite pair of characters. And therefore, their absence has left everyone wondering if Dilip Joshi and Munmun Dutta have left the popular sitcom. The rumours of Dilip Joshi and Munmun Dutta's exit from TMKOC started after fans noticed that Jethalal and Babita Ji have been missing from the current 'Bhootni' plot for a long time now. All the members of the Gokuldham society are on vacation in a haunted bungalow. While other characters like Bapu ji, Popatlal, Sodhi and others have joined Taarak Mehta and Anjali on this vacation, Jethalal and Babita Ji have been missing in action. This has left everyone wondering if Dilip Joshi and Munmun Dutta are planning to quit the show. As reported by ABP News, the show's production house has confirmed that Munmun Dutta and Dilio Joshi are still part of the show. While the current plotline indicates that 'Jethalal' is on a business trip with his associates, 'Babita' and 'Iyer' are said to be vacationing in Mahabaleshwar. It should be noted that both Munmun Dutta and Dilip Joshi have been a part of TMKOC ever since its beginning. The former plays the role of Babita ji in the popular sitcom, and her chemistry with Jethalal (essayed by Dilip Joshi) is widely loved by all. Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah has been running successfully for 17 years now. However, in these years, several actors have also left the show. Among others, Disha Vakani, Jheel Mehta, Bhavya Gandhi, Raj Anadkat, Palak Sindhwani, Gurucharan Singh Sodhi and Neha Mehta are no longer a part of TMKOC. In a previous interview with the SCREEN, Asit Modi talked about actors leaving the show and then making allegations against him. 'I have never detached myself from the actors. If there is any issue, they can always contact me. I have always been very honest and kept the show first. I have never thought of any personal gains, so with incidents like these, I do get upset, but it's a part of life," he said.
