Taarak Mehta Ka Oolta Chashmah fame Bhavya Gandhi is all set to return to small screen. The actor essayed the role of Tipendra Jethalal Gada in the sitcom show for 7 years. He exited the show in 2017 and will now be seen in Pushpa Impossible.

Bhavya Gandhi to play the role of antagonist in Pushpa Impossible 

Best known for his role as 'Tappu' in the longest-running sitcom Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah (TMKOC), actor Bhavya Gandhi, will be now seen as a psychotic antagonist Prabhaas in the show Pushpa Impossible. A new threat enters Pushpa (Karuna Pandey) and her family’s life with the entry of Bhavya. His character as a psychotic antagonist is set on seeking revenge and destruction and this marks a significant departure from his previous innocent and mischievous role as Tappu, showcasing his versatility as an actor.

Talking about the same, Bhavya said: “Stepping into the role of Prabhaas is a delightful experience for me as I am playing a negative character for the first time and this role is very different from playing the innocent Tappu from Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. Prabhaas is unpredictable and deeply troubled, with a calm exterior that masks intense inner turmoil, making him dangerously fascinating.” Returning to television with such a complex character on the home channel Sony SAB is incredibly exciting for me," he added.
