September 3, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): SAB TV's situational comedy, 'Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashma', always strives to bring something fascinating for the audience. Recently, for the shoot of Janmashthamee celebrations in Gokul Dham society, there appeared to be some guests who were never invited but their presence made the atmosphere of the sets very thrilling.
There will be a special episode of 'Taarak Mehta...' where the couples get into a fight to win the Dahee Haandi war. During which both the genders try their best to win over the competition. Even though Daya Ben (Disha Wakani) takes the cake, by breaking the Haandi, there were some one special to witness and take part in the shoot. "Along with the Haandi, the rope was decorated with a variety of fruits like apples, bananas, and guavas which attracted the monkeys in the area located beyond the set. And to get those eatables, many monkeys were trying their hard, individually and in a group. Finally after the shoot, all the fruits were taken away by them."
"The entire unit was enjoying the monkey's presence on the sets," adds a source. We contacted Ambika Ranjankar (Komal Haathi) who seemed to be very excited with the presence of the monkeys. "The monkeys were very naughty yesterday. By their movements, it was clear that they had planned the whole idea of stealing the fruits from that Haandi rope. But it was hilarious to see them working in group."
Finally over here, the monkeys took the fruits and not the cake!
