Modi even shared that Ghanshyam Nayak was ill since last year, but still shot an episode when the entire Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah team was in Daman. He remembered how they use to celebrate Nayak’s birthday on the set.
“It was difficult to meet him in the last couple of months because he was not keeping well. Taarak… has lost a very important and talented actor and I would say Gujarati theatre and television values his contribution. He kept telling me, ‘I want to work till the last day of my life’,” Modi continued.
