In the year 2022, TV actor Sachin Shroff entered ‘Tarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’ as Tarak Mehta. He replaced Shailesh Lodha. If Sachin is to be believed, he agreed to do ‘Tarak…’ on the insistence of Bobby Deol. Actually, Sachin and Bobby have worked together in the web series ‘Ashram’. During the shooting, both of them became friends and it continues till now. Bobby Deol was told about the offer of ‘Tarak Mehta..’ In an interview given to Dainik Bhaskar, the actor says, ‘Bobby is a good friend of mine. It has been almost five years, we are in touch with each other. During the shooting of ‘Ashram 3’, I got a call for ‘Tarak Mehta…’. I discussed this with Bobby. He said- ‘Sachin, this is a very good show. You should definitely do this. You go and meet the makers.’ I followed his advice and had a meeting with the show makers. So what? Today I am a part of this show. Bobby has achieved mastery in transformation Sachin further tells about Bobby Deol, ‘Bobby is a natural actor. The truth is that he does not need to act. His face is quite innocent. In such a situation, when he plays a negative role, he completely transforms himself. Like he did in the film ‘Animal’. This is a big victory for an actor. Bobby has achieved mastery in transformation.’ Some episodes of the series ‘Ashram 4’ are ready. Three seasons of ‘Ashram’ have been released. About the final season, Sachin says, ‘Our full effort is to deliver season 4 i.e. the final chapter to the audience. Some episodes are also ready. Now when Prakash ji (filmmaker Prakash Jha) gets time, he will work on it. Currently, he is busy with another project. Also, it is very important to get the dates of all the actors. We will definitely present something good in front of the audience at the right time.’ I am sure that slowly people will accept me Talking about the show ‘Tarak Mehta…’, after being associated with the show for 14 years, Shailesh suddenly left the show. Fans are missing him a lot. Regarding this, Sachin says, ‘I cannot do mimicry. Whatever I do, I do it naturally. The audience was watching one flavour for the last 14 years. Suddenly that flavour was replaced by another flavour. It was not easy for the audience to accept this. Anyway, this is a journey for me. I am sure that slowly people will accept me.’ Many controversies are also associated with this show In the last few years, many controversies have also been associated with this show. The producer did not get along with some artists, and in one case a former artist even accused him of sexual harassment. Regarding this, Sachin says, ‘Whenever there is any controversy, our producer Asit Modi instructs us to stay away from all these things. According to him, the focus of the team should be only on entertaining the people. They assure us that they will personally handle all these things. The actors do not have to worry.’ Sachin Shroff got married for the second time at the age of 43 Talking about his personal life, Sachin Shroff married TV actress Juhi Parmar in 2009. Sachin and Juhi’s marriage lasted only 6 years. Both of them got divorced in 2015. Last year, Sachin Shroff got married for the second time at the age of 43. Regarding this, he said, ‘It was not at all difficult for me to take the decision of marriage at this stage of my age. Well, if you think about it, then this is a very big decision. I believe that it is very important to have a companion in this journey. I am satisfied with my decision.’
