Raj Anadkat replaced Bhavya Gandhi as Tapu in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. The actor played the character well for a few years before his exit in 2022. After quitting TMKOC, Raj took up a new project, a Gujarati show called United States of Gujarat. Even after exiting Asit Kumarr Modi's show, Raj was romantically linked with his co-star Munmun Dutta. It was reported that they got engaged earlier this year. And now, Anadkat has reacted to rumours of their engagement.
Earlier Munmun Dutta had denied rumours of her engagement with Raj Anadkat. However, the Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah actor never spoke about it. In an interview with the Bombay Times, Anadkat reacted to this speculation. "I would not like to speak about Munmun. I never have. I am focusing on my career and I have many other things to talk about. Whenever there is something interesting to talk about my personal life, I will do so," he said.
Raj added that his mother would love to have 'swayamwar' for him. The actor finds it funny because he feels he has yet to establish himself in his career.
In the same conversation, Raj spoke about quitting Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. The actor, who played Tapu in the sitcom, said, "I played Tappu for five years and there was nothing more that I could explore with the character. When I quit the show, all my friends felt I was mad to do something like that. But I had to take up the challenge and push myself to do something different." The actor stated that TMKOC was a great milestone in his career and he is grateful for it.
Meanwhile, Asit Kumarr Modi recently introduced Khushi Mali as the new Sonu of TMKOC. Mali replaced Palak Sindhwani as Sonu in the sitcom, which airs on Sony Sab. The episodes are also available for streaming on SonyLIV and OTTplay Premium.
