Tapu Sena.
Who was the smartest and most intelligent member of Tappu Sena from ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’? You must have immediately remembered the answer to this question and if not, then we will tell you. It was none other than Sonu. So far, four actresses have played the character of Sonu. Today we will talk about the oldest Sonu i.e. Jheel Mehta who people also call OG Sonu. The actress worked on this television show for years and then left it. Now he has settled into a different world, away from the limelight. Jheel Mehta is very active on social media and keeps sharing every update of her life. He recently opened up about his career choice and explained why he stepped away from acting.
difficulties encountered
Jheel Mehta, while speaking to Humans of Bombay, spoke about a moment in 2019 that completely changed her life. Five years ago, the actress’s father suffered a heart attack, after which the actress completely abandoned the idea of acting. Leaving aside her career as an actress, the actress decided to carry on the family business and support her father. Meanwhile, he was offered many new programs, but he ignored them all.
I got popularity from the show.
Talking about Taarak Mehta, Jheel said, ‘When kids were enjoying Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah on TV, I was living it in real life. I was only 10 years old when a friend of my mother told us about a new show that was coming out: TMKOC. After the first act, my mother interrupted me and said, ‘Will you audition again?’ That question changed my life. I went for the audition, where Asit sir asked me to say a few lines. So I did and just like that, I became part of the cast of TMKOC. Soon children started feeling connected with my character Sonu and strangers started asking me for photographs. As an ordinary child, I became famous in every home and artists became my family.
he walked away from acting
The actress further said, “All good things must come to an end and in 2012 I decided to leave the show.” People kept asking me why I left such a popular program, but I had exams and wanted to focus on my studies. It was a difficult decision, but I had to do it for my future. I filmed some ads, but in 2019, when Dad had a heart attack, I decided to put everything aside and help him in his business. The girl who once dreamed of the studio lights now dreamed of a new dream: becoming a successful businesswoman. And this dream was also from the heart, like acting.
