Last month, actor Kush Shah, who played the role of Goli in 'Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah', quit the show. He was given a farewell party by the makers where producer Asit Modi and the entire cast were present. Dharmit Shah has stepped into the shoes of Kush. In an interview, Dharmit has opened up on playing Goli in 'TMKOC', and how he is dealing with comparisons with Kush.
In an interview with ETimes, Dharmit said that there will be comparisons, and he is ready for it. He also said that he and Kush are different personalities and their reactions can’t be the same. Dharmit added, ''I will definitely try to match up to what the previous Goli did.” He also said that he is not going to copy the previous Goli and will try and bring his own flavour to the character.
