Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah fame Nitish Bhulani opens up on his comparisons with Raj Anadkat; says, “I’m going to play Tappu in my own style”
Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah has been one of the longest-running shows on Indian Television. The show has been witnessing some new faces as some of the actors have decided to quit the show. Actor Raj Anadkat, who quit the show a few months ago, is now replaced by Nitish Bhulani for the role of Tappu.
The actor talked about it in a recent interview with ETimes TV and shared, “I am very excited to bag Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah and along with excitement I also know I have to work really hard for the role because the audience’s expectations from me are very high. I am working day and night and I know they will shower love on me. I trust my talent and I am not going to leave any stone unturned. The upcoming track is going to be full of exciting moments and twists and turns, the audience will definitely enjoy it.”
When asked about getting compared to Raj Anadkat, he said, “I feel Raj played the character the way he wanted to, in his own style. Every person has their own thought process and they build their characters according to their thoughts. Now, I am going to portray Tappu in my own style and the way I want. I will try my best to entertain the audience and get the same love from them.”
The young actor also talked about his experience of working with Dilip Joshi and called it a dream come true moment, “Working with Dilip Joshi sir is like a dream come true. Mera Sapna sach hogaya. Dilip sir is a living legend and to share screen space with him, learning the nuances and spontaneity is like a dream come true moment for me. I am learning a lot on this show and I don’t think I could have learned so much had I taken up some other project. I am very happy.”
Talking about his parent’s reaction to bagging such a big role, he said, “My parents are huge fans of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. My father especially as a kid he would always call me to watch TaaraK Mehta at 8:30 PM. My dad believed that Jethalal is his friend and he would proudly say that TMKOC is his friend’s show. He was so attached to Jethalal’s character that he subconsciously started considering him his friend. And today destiny made me a part of the same show that he watches so fondly and calls Jethalal’s friend. I would like to thank God for this opportunity.”
Talking about his bond with the Tappu sena, Nitish said, “The entire Tappu sena has been very nice and good to me. I connected with all of them from day one. In fact, I started bonding with them when I did the mock test. We share a loving bond and we share rooms with each other. I am having a great time with all of them.”
