India's famous sitcom show, Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, has hogged the limelight since the show's inception. Fans were on cloud nine when they came to know that 'Dayaben', Jethalal's innocent wife, would be returning to the small screen. Well, Disha Vakani ruled the hearts of everyone as 'Daya', but since she was on maternity leave in 2018, she has not returned to the show. Since then, the makers have been on the lookout for a new 'Daya', and according to a News 18 report, Kajal Pisal has been finalised.
The producer of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, Asit Modi, reportedly has finalised on Kajal, who worked hard to audition for the iconic role of 'Dayaben'. Earlier, in an interview with ETimes, Kajal shared that she was waiting for the call from the TMKOC makers to come, but she never got the call. This made her realise that the role of 'Dayaben' was not meant for Kajal. The actress is best known for her role as 'Ishika Kapoor' in Bade Achhe Lagte Hain. She was seen next to Ram Kapoor and Sakshi Tanwar. Kajal has also been a part of many shows like Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai, Saath Nibhaana Saathiya, and, as of now, is being seen in Jhanak. It is interesting to note that in 2022, Asit claimed that Kajal was not selected for the role of 'Dayaben'. He said in an interview with ABP:
"I don't know who is spreading this rumour. I don't even know who Kajal Pisal is. I have never even met her. Earlier also, names of many actresses were taken, about whom I do not have any information."
Speaking of Kajal, she has even played the role of a mother to a young boy in Sirf Tum. Netizens had also slammed her for playing a double-age character. She revealed in an interview with ETimes that she is glad that people are watching and appreciating her work. She does not regret playing a role which is double her age. On the other hand, Asit Modi has recently confirmed that Disha will not return to Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah as she is dedicated to her family. Asit has made a bold move in selecting Kajal as he yet has open doors for Disha if she comes back. He said:
"'I am still trying, but I believe Disha Vakani may not return. She has two kids and is deeply involved in her family life. She is like a sister to me, and we continue to share a close bond with her family. Over the years, her father and brother have also become like family to me. When you work together for 17 years, these relationships naturally become an extension of your own family,."
Will Kajal Pisal be able to fit into the shoes of Disha Vakani, as the new Dayaben in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, only time will tell.
