It has been around six months of Shailesh Lodha’s exit from the Television show Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. It is known that his dues are yet to be cleared. The actor had been working in the show since 14 years but resigned from it without stating any reason in April 2022. A source shares, Shailesh’s payment from over a year has not been cleared by the makers of the serial. It’s approximately a six-digit amount. He had waited with patience for more than a year for the makers to clear his dues. But producer Asit Kumarr Modi is paying no attention to it.
The source adds that Lodha left the show due to an altercation with the showrunner: “He felt disrespected and left the show without any notice. Shailesh has maintained a dignified silence since then.”
It has been known from other source as per the set shares, “This isn’t the first time when someone’s cheque has been delayed. Neha’s (actor Neha K Mehta, who played Anjali in the show) ₹30-40 lakh are yet to be cleared by the producer. Even Raj Anadkat (actor), who played Tappu, faced similar issues.”
While the media tried to contact Lodha, he gave a sarcastic response and stated, “Tell me something new.” The actor added, “I’m travelling for my poetry gigs. I’ll be talking when I’m back.”
