I was in Delhi and I was sitting with my family members and we were watching Taarak Mehta. And in that episode, Dharam paaji had a cameo for a film promotion or something. I said ‘wow, Dharam paaji is here’ and in that episode, they introduced the new Sodhi. I was shocked when I saw that. I was watching it with my parents and they were just as shocked.”
