Bhavya Gandhi’s TV Comeback: Former ‘TMKOC’ Actor to Portray Dark Role in ‘Pushpa Impossible’

Bhavya Gandhi, who rose to fame as Tipendra Jethalal Gada (fondly known as Tapu) on the iconic TV show Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah (TMKOC), is making his much-anticipated return to television. Bhavya portrayed the lovable son of Jethalal and Daya from 2008 until 2017, captivating audiences with his charm and energy. After departing from TMKOC to pursue a career in films, the talented actor is now set to make a striking comeback to the small screen. According to a report by Times Now, Bhavya Gandhi will be joining the cast of Pushpa Impossible—and this time, he’s taking on a role that’s a stark departure from his previous characters.

Yes, you heard that right! Bhavya, who blossomed in front of our eyes as the mischievous leader of the Tapu Sena, is now venturing into uncharted territory. In Pushpa Impossible, he will be portraying a negative character—a mad, psychotic individual with a dark and complex personality. This role marks a significant shift in Bhavya’s acting journey, offering fans a chance to see him in a grittier, more intense light.

Sources reveal that in Pushpa Impossible, Bhavya’s character will be a menacing force, intent on wreaking havoc in the lives of the Pushpa family. His portrayal is expected to bring a storm of drama and tension to the show, as he embodies a persona that is both unpredictable and dangerous.

Since leaving TMKOC, Bhavya Gandhi has carved out a diverse career in the film industry. His film debut came in 2017 with Pappa Tamne Nahi Samjaay, followed by notable projects like Bau Na Vichar and Baap Kamaal Dikro Dhamaal. He also showcased his versatility in the role of Nanku in the TV show Shaadi Ke Siyape. Bhavya’s film journey began earlier with his role as Suryakant in the 2010 Hindi film Striker, and he later starred in the short film Fidget Spinner as Aniket.

Looking ahead, Bhavya Gandhi is gearing up for new roles in the Gujarati film Kehvatlal Parivar and the Hindi film Doctor Doctor, further expanding his acting repertoire.

Pushpa Impossible, produced by Jamnadas Majethia under the banner of Hats Off Productions, premiered on June 6, 2022. The series stars Karuna Pandey Vaidya in the lead role and tells the inspiring story of Pushpa Randeriya Patel, a 47-year-old woman living in Mumbai’s Bapodhra Chawl with her children—Ashwin, Chirag, and Rashi. The show chronicles Pushpa’s remarkable journey from being a house help to launching her own tiffin service and eventually becoming a successful businesswoman.

Bhavya Gandhi’s entry into Pushpa Impossible is expected to bring new layers of drama and excitement to the already compelling narrative, making it a must-watch for fans.
