Meanwhile, the Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah actress Sunayana Fozdar aka Anjali Bhabhi recently opened up about issues with the makers of the show. She talked about her take on playing Dayaben instead. Fozdar answered, “No yaar, I think I love her character (Dayaben), who doesn’t? I don’t want to say never say never, because as an actor, you should never say that. Now that I’m playing Anjali, mujhe kuch aur sochna bhi nahi hai. I’m very happy playing that character. I feel there’s a lot I can offer to that character. So, there’s a lot more to explore since I’ve just been a part of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah since 6-7 months.”.
