Fans took the comments section and expressed that they would miss the actor on the show. “Thanks for the entertainment Tapu,” one fan wrote. Another wrote, “Always support you brother”
Raj took on the role of Tapu, Jethalal’s son, after Bhavya Gandhi quit the show. A few months ago, there were speculations that Raj might be quitting the show as he had been absent from the set.
When Raj was questioned about the same in August, he told Pinkvilla, “My fans, my audience, my well-wishers, they all know that I am very good in creating suspense. I am an expert in creating suspense.”
Earlier this year, Shailesh Lodha quit the show amid much controversy. Actor Sachin Shroff stepped into his shoes.
