Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah: Do You Know? Koi Mil Gaya's Jadoo Was Seen As Dayaben’s Relative In The Show
Hrithik Roshan and Preity Zinta starrer Koi Mil Gaya recently completed 18 years on August 10, 2021. The Indian sci-fi film, which was a huge success at the box office, gifted the audience with its first alien named Jadoo. The friendly alien character became a rage and is still remembered by many.
However, not many are aware of the fact that the actor who played the role of Jadoo in the film, appeared in the popular sitcom, Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah as well. The actor who slipped into Jadoo's avatar was actor Indravadan Purohit who appeared on the Sony SAB show. He previously played the part of one of Dayaben aka Disha Vakani’s distant relatives on the long-running series.
Indravadan Purohit was seen in one of the episodes where Dayaben’s onscreen brother Sundarlal arrives at Gokuldham society with his Shri Sai Bhakt Mandal team. Purohit, who was vertically challenged, has also acted in several TV shows and over 250 films in six languages. The actor passed on September 28, 2014.
Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah is one of the longest-running sitcoms on Indian TV. The hugely popular show recently completed 13 years and the team celebrated this big day by hosting a celebration on the sets. Over the years, the sitcom has garnered a cult-like following whilst it continues to entertain the audience with fresh episodes even during the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, the show recently landed in trouble as actress Munmun Dutta who plays Babita on the show was embroiled in the casteist slur controversy. As per reports in TOI, producer Asit Modi has now made the actors sign an undertaking that he/she will not use any foul language or make a casteist/ religious remark that may hurt any sentiment.
