TMKOC: Neha Mehta Says She Has Given Her Best To The Show & That Her Comeback Will Depend On The Audience

However, Neha has quashed the rumours in an interview. The actress who is currently shooting for a Gujarati film, told E Times, “There is no truth to these rumours. I will only consider a comeback to Taarak Mehta... if the audiences, production house and channel wants me. And after quitting the show, I have never called the producer or expressed my wish to return. My first priority will always be the audience and viewers who have given me love and respect all these years. I don’t know how these talks have surfaced.”

She went on to add, She added, “I have given my best to the show and my comeback will also depend on the audience. I want to reiterate that I have nothing against the production house or Asit sir. I want to stand for what I truthfully believe in and therefore I quit the show. I don’t want to create a negative situation, so I have maintained a dignified silence. I don’t believe in proving to anyone or explaining the reason for my quitting. I want to continue doing good karma with God’s blessings. I am currently doing a Gujarati film and there were other TV show offers too.”
