Taarak
Mehta
Ka
Ooltah
Chashmah
was
recently
in
the
news
after
Shailesh
Lodha,
who
played
the
role
of
Tarak
Mehta,
quit
the
long-running
sitcom
after
14
years.
Now,
according
to
various
media
reports,
Munmun
Dutta
aka
Babita
Ji
is
also
going
to
bid
adieu
to
the
show.
Rumours
are
rife
that
the
actress
will
leave
the
Sony
SAB
show
to
participate
in
a
reality
show.
Reportedly,
the
makers
of
Bigg
Boss
OTT
have
approached
Munmun
to
appear
as
a
contestant
on
the
upcoming
second
season
of
the
show.
The
actress,
who
is
a
huge
fan
of
the
reality
series,
had
even
appeared
on
the
Salman
Khan
hosted
Bigg
Boss
15
as
a
challenger
along
with
Surbhi
Chandna,
Vishal
Puri,
and
Akanksha
Puri
during
the
'Ticket
to
Finale'
task,
a
few
months
ago.
However,
it
must
be
noted
that
nothing
has
been
confirmed
in
this
regard
as
of
yet
as
no
official
announcements
have
been
made
by
the
actress
or
the
makers.
Interestingly,
this
is
not
the
first
that
the
reports
of
Munmun
quitting
Taarak
Mehta
Ka
Ooltah
Chashmah
have
been
making
headlines
in
the
media.
Last
year
in
July,
it
was
being
speculated
that
she
had
quit
the
show
as
she
did
not
turn
up
on
the
sets
for
a
month.
Back
then,
a
source
had
informed
that
Munmun
has
not
reported
to
the
sets
ever
since
she
got
embroiled
in
the
casteist
slur
controversy.
But
Dutta
had
later
clarified
that
her
absence
was
because
the
plot
did
not
require
her.
The
actress
was
quoted
as
saying,
“People
are
saying
that
I
did
not
report
on
the
sets
of
the
show
and
it
is
totally
untrue.
The
truth
is
that
the
track
in
the
show
did
not
require
my
presence.
Therefore,
I
was
not
called
for
shooting.
Production
decides
the
scenes
and
the
next
track.
I
don’t
decide
that.
I
am
just
an
individual
who
goes
to
work,
does
her
job
and
comes
back.
So
if
I
am
not
required
in
the
scenes,
I
will
obviously
not
shoot.”
