Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah: Kriti Sanon’s Co-Actor Arshi Bharti Joins The Show; Says, “I Had Given An Audition & Forgotten About It”

Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah continues to evolve as some new additions have been made. The biggest has been Taarak’s (Shailesh Lodha) boss in the form of Rakesh Bedi. Splitsvilla fame Aradhana Sharma too played one of the interesting characters. Now, the latest addition to the list is Kriti Sanon’s co-actor, Arshi Bharti.

Arshi Bharti has shared a screen with Kriti Sanon in Ashutosh Gowariker‘s Panipat. She played the character of Kriti’s friend in it. In the show, she has bagged an interesting character of Taarak’s boss’ secretary i.e. Rakesh Bedi’s secretary. As Taarak’s office is often shown in the show, seems like Arshi’s role is expected to be a recurring one.

Sharing the experience of joining the sitcom, Arshi said, “I had given an audition and had forgotten about it just like all the actors do, but after a week I got a call from my casting director saying I had been shortlisted, well at first I couldn’t recall but then when he said it’s for Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah and then I went crazy because I didn’t expect this to happen, getting shortlisted is a big thing though I wasn’t expecting I would get the role but I got a call at night saying ‘kal se shoot hai hogya hai aapka’ I was so happy I couldn’t believe this till the next day when I had my shoot.”
