The leading man of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah fan, Shailesh Lodha, who plays the role of Taarak, is quitting the show, claim reports. This news has come as heartbreaking news for all the fans.?
After Dayaben, AKA Disha Vakani's dramatic exit from the show, Lodha's exit comes as a major shock for all TMKOC fans. According to a report in ETimes, Lodha has already shopped shooting for the TMKOC for the past month.?
He added that there are multiple reasons why Lodha is not interested in returning to the show. Talking about Shailesh's exit, a source said,?
"Shailesh has not been shooting for the show for the last month and has no plans to return to the show. He is not very happy with his contract, and he feels that his dates are not properly used in the show. One of the other reasons for this decision is with Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. The talented actor cannot explore other opportunities due to the exclusivity factor."?
The report adds, "He has turned down multiple offers recently, and now he doesn't want to waste other opportunities coming his way. The production house is trying its best to convince Shailesh to stay back, but it looks like the seasoned actor and well-known poet has already made up his mind."?
The actor has been associated with the iconic show since 2008, and his friendship with Jethalal (Dilip Joshi) is what makes the show endearing and fun for fans. Lodha hasn't responded to the reports, but he did post a cryptic post on Instagram.?
