Gurucharan Singh, widely recognized for his role as Roshan Singh Sodhi in the popular show Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, recently made headlines after disappearing for around 25 days. In a candid interview, Gurucharan revealed that he has not eaten properly for 34 days and is grappling with a staggering debt of Rs 1.2 crore.

Gurucharan opened up about his struggles, sharing, “Aaj 34th day hai aur maine khana nahi khaya hai. Kuch jagah mai kha leta hu jaise Guru ji ka ashram hai vahan jata hu ur path hota hai toh Monday ko hi jaata hu kyuki Monday ko hi vahan par Samosa milta hai ya bread Pakoda or saath mein chai or meetha.” (Today is the 34th day I haven’t eaten anything. Sometimes, I eat at certain places, like Guruji’s ashram, where I go on Mondays for samosas, bread pakoras, tea, and sweets.)

The actor further explained that he eats at Guruji’s ashram on Mondays, where they serve prasad, which he doesn’t refuse as it is offered by God. On other days, they provide a full meal.

Gurucharan also detailed his ongoing financial struggles, stating, “4 saal ho gaye hai, 4 saal se mai bahut saare kaam karne ki koshish kar raha hu. Businesses karne ki koshish kar raha hu sab mein failure mila hai. Toh ab thak gaya hu, ab apna paisa aana chahiye. Aur mai apne karze utaar saku.” (It’s been 4 years; for 4 years, I have been trying to undertake various tasks and businesses, but I have faced failure in all of them. I am now exhausted and need to start earning money to repay my debts.)

He revealed that his total debt is quite significant. He owes around Rs 55-60 lakhs to banks and EMIs and has borrowed a similar amount from friends, bringing his total debt to nearly Rs 1.2 crore.

Facing severe financial difficulties, Gurucharan Singh embarked on a spiritual journey. After leaving Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah in 2020, he moved to Delhi and explored various business ventures, none of which were successful. He also faced financial problems due to property disputes. Gurucharan went missing on April 22, 2024, and returned home on May 17, 2024, leaving many concerned for his well-being.
