Bhavya Gandhi, who became famous as the mischievous ‘Tappu’ in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, is all set to return to television after a long break of 7 years. Bhavya played the role of Tappu, the lovable prankster, for nine years and won the hearts of many viewers. However, he left the show in 2017, leaving fans disappointed. Since then, Bhavya stayed away from TV but is now making a comeback. This time, though, he’s bringing a completely different character to life.
From Comedy to Dark Shades in ‘Pushpa Impossible’
Bhavya Gandhi will be seen in Sony SAB’s Pushpa Impossible, but not as the fun-loving Tappu. Instead, he will portray a negative character. This role is very different from anything Bhavya has done before. Known for his cheerful roles, he will now play a grey-shaded, almost psychotic character. This change from comedy to a serious, dark role is sure to surprise viewers.
Fans, who are used to seeing him as the jovial Tappu, might find it hard to believe that Bhavya’s new role will make them dislike him. His character in Pushpa Impossible will be a major challenge for Pushpa and her family, bringing new twists to the story.
Bhavya’s Journey from TV to Gujarati Films
After quitting Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, Bhavya Gandhi moved to the Gujarati film industry. He made his debut with the movie Pappa Tamne Nahi Samjhe and went on to work in several films like Baap Dhamaal Dikro Kamal, Bau Na Vichar, Taari Satha, and Kahavatlal Parivar. His acting in these movies was appreciated, and he won several awards for his performances. Bhavya’s journey from television to the silver screen shows his versatility as an actor.
The Decision to Leave Taarak Mehta
Bhavya, who started working in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah when he was just a child, shared in a recent interview how difficult it was to leave the show. At the age of 10, he served a nine-month notice period before finally saying goodbye to the show. Usually, actors serve a three-month notice before leaving a show, but Bhavya took more time because he was unsure about his future. He was worried about his personal growth, which led him to take the tough decision of quitting the popular show.
Three Actors Have Played Tappu
After Bhavya Gandhi’s exit, Raj Anadkat took over the role of Tappu in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. Raj stayed with the show for five years before leaving in 2022. Following Raj’s departure, Nitish Bhulani stepped into the role. Nitish is now the third actor to play the character of Tappu, a role that has become iconic over the years.
Bhavya Gandhi’s return to television in Pushpa Impossible is eagerly awaited by his fans, but this time, they will see him in a completely different light.
