MUMBAI: Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah is one of the most loved comedy shows. One of the characters, Roshan Singh Sodhi, played by Gurucharan Singh, was loved for his funny and romantic nature. However, the actor recently shared that he was in debt before landing the role in the show.

The actor bid adieu to the show last year. Balvinder Singh Sodhi was roped in as a replacement.

Meanwhile, Gurucharan recently revealed his tragic past story when he was in total debt. The actor said he moved to the city of dreams, Mumbai as people were after him for the money. He arrived in the city with a hope to find work and to his surprise; he landed the role of Roshan Singh Sodhi in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah within 6 months.

The show changed his life forever and he credits it for his fame. However, the actor decided to quit the show in 2013 due to creative differences with the producer but was brought back a year later in public demand.

In 2020, the actor finally said goodbye to the show. This time he was replaced by Balwinder Singh Suri.
