In April this year, ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Oolta Chashma’ actor Gurcharan Singh went missing. His father also lodged a complaint of kidnapping with the police. Meanwhile, Gurucharan returned home on 18 May. The actor told the police that he was on a spiritual journey due to some personal issues.
What did Gurucharan do after being away from home for so many days, where did he go and how is his life now, he has told all these things in an interview.
In an interview to Bombay Times, he said that now he is looking for work because he has no work. Gurucharan also hinted that he might settle down by getting married soon.
I request support from industry people
Gurucharan said, ‘I have come to Mumbai and want to do a lot of work. I am currently in many loans and debts. I am willing to work hard to pay off all debts. I want to get married soon and settle down. As soon as I get married I will shift my parents from Delhi to Mumbai so that I can take care of them.
Gurucharan further said, ‘Many things have influenced me during the Corona epidemic. I left Mumbai and returned to Delhi in 2020 because Dad had a surgery. After that I started many businesses but none of them worked either the business didn’t work out well or the people I partnered with disappeared. I have also had a property issue going on for years that has cost a lot of money, so all this has made my finances very bad.
‘I didn’t go missing for publicity
Gurucharan further said, ‘When I felt bad, I went on a spiritual journey. I was focused on God and I did not want to return but God gave me a sign to return home. Many people believe that I disappeared because I wanted to gain fame but this is not true.’
Left the show after a dispute with the producer
Gurucharan Singh was a part of ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Oolta Chashma’ from its inception till 2013. Later he left the show due to some controversy with producer Asit Modi.
However, by then he had become so popular that the producers had to bring him back to the show due to popular demand. After making a comeback, he did this show for 6 years.
After this, Gurucharan left the show in 2020 to take care of his father during the lockdown. After taking a break from acting, Gurucharan lives with his parents in Delhi.
