The actor revealed that he shared his make-up room with the protagonist on the sets of ‘Taarak Mehta’. He said that Ghanshyam was very excited to return to the sets after several days.
“Me and Kaka were sharing a make-up and he came on the sets after a long time. He entered the room and said ‘Aav beta kem che’ I took his blessings and he was very happy to be back on the sets after so many days. He asked me about my family and said, ‘Saras, God bless you bear’,” Raj wrote on Instagram.
TV’s Tappu shared the post on social media lauding his co-star’s determination irrespective of age. He said, “His dedication and hard work at such a young age was appreciable. He will never forget those tales. Kaka, you will always be remembered.”
