Shailesh Lodha was a part of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah for 14 years. The actor has refrained from commenting on his exit from the popular sitcom. However, a source close to the show’s team told indianexpress.com, “Shailesh feels that his character has been lost among the ensemble. While he gave his dates, there’s not much for him to do. Also, now that the pandemic is over, his kavi sammelans have again started and he’s quite busy. He recently informed the production house that he wouldn’t like to continue. Shailesh has now stopped coming for shoots and is sticking to his ground.”

Now, it remains to be seen if the audience will like Shailesh in his new role or not.
