Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah actor Disha Vakani, who plays Dayaben, took off on maternity leave in September 2017. She delivered a baby girl two months later.

Ever since, there has been no word from the actor, whether she wants to continue working in the show. After waiting for almost a year-and-a-half, the makers have now issued her an ultimatum. Those in the know say that Vakani wants to quit the comic caper.
