More about Palak Sidhwani's exit from the show

In 2024, Palak Sidhwani exited the show. On the last day, she shared a series of photos from the sets of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah featuring Dilip Joshi, Mandar Chandwadkar, and several other actors of the show. In the photos, Palak was also dressed up as her character. Along with it, she penned a long post, sharing her journey of working on the show. Palak thanked her audience for loving and supporting her character in the past five years, and for how she got recognised due to the show. 

Later, Palak Sindwani, in an interview to Pinkvilla, revealed that back in December 2023, she first approached the makers to allow her to leave the show. Palak explained to them that she had a medical condition and would like to take a break. But at that time, they did not allow her to leave, as another cast member was also in talks with them about quitting. Palak was quoted as saying:

"I have had certain medical issues. I don't want to go into details of that. My doctor advised me to take less stress and asked me to maintain a good lifestyle where I get good sleep and the work is light. But here anything happens at any time. I was planning to quit the show. In December 2023, for the first time, I told their production head that I want to quit. After hearing this, he said, 'No, not now. Now another co-actor is leaving.'" 

Palak added that her co-star, who wanted to quit at that time, also kept hanging for 1.5 years. The makers did not let the actor quit the show for one reason or another. Even when she wanted to quit the show, the makers did the same with her.
