If a recent report in an entertainment portal is to be believed, the makers of the show have decided to bring back the character of Dayaben before Navratri 2020. Yes, you read that right!

The production house is in talks with Disha ; however the demands made by her family have acted as a barrier between the two sides, the report added. The makers are reportedly planning to bring the popular character of Dayaben by next month or maximum by Diwali 2020. Sounds interesting, isn’t it?

"Talks are on and off with Disha Vakani related to the comeback. However, the various demands made by her family have been acting as a hurdle for the longest time. However, the makers are now certain to plan a return of Dayaben even if Disha doesn't agree. The makers don't want to keep the audience separated from one of their favourite characters, Daya and what better festival for her to return than Navratri?," a source told Pinkvilla.

It remains to be seen if Dayaben will make a comeback to the show or not as gossip mills had earlier suggested that she would appear in a special Raksha Bandhan 2020 episode.

‘Taarak Mehta’, which is one of the top-rated shows on Indian television, recently completed 3000 episodes. The sitcom became the second Hindi TV show to achieve the milestone after Shivangi Joshi and Mohsin Khan starrer ‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’.

The cast and crew of ‘TMKOC’ celebrated the occasion on the sets of the show by cutting a cake. Munmum Datta aka Babita shared a video from the celebrations on her Instagram handle. Check it out!
