happysodes. This milestone not only cements the show’s legacy as India’s

show since the very beginning. Writers, technicians, set designers, and
production staff who have quietly carried the show on their shoulders for

Creator and Producer of the show, said, “Completing 4500 Happysodes is a
blessing and a privilege. The show has recently entered its 18th year,
continuing its presence in Indian households and reaching audiences across
generations. This is not just our success, it is the result of the hard work of
every person who has been part of this journey since the very beginning. Today,
we celebrated with them because they are the foundation of Taarak Mehta Ka
Ooltah Chashmah. I feel deeply grateful to our cast, crew, and especially to
our audiences. It is their love and support that has carried us this far.”
What makes this milestone meaningful is that the show
Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmahis not just about the number of episodes. It is
about the people who create it every single day. From the ensemble cast and
writers to the crew and technicians and office staff, every contributor has
poured their heart into bringing Gokuldham Society alive. That is why it
