Ambika Ranjankar Aka Komal Quits Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah?

After a few episodes without her character, Komal Hathi, the actress has confirmed that she is still part of the show.

August 20, 2025: Actress Ambika Ranjankar, who has been a regular on the hit sitcom Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah since it started over 17 years ago, has put to rest fan concern regarding her future on the program. There were reports on social media that Komal Hathi, her character, would be leaving the show after she wasn’t in a few recent episodes.

But when the actress talked to the entertainment website TellyChakkar, she explicitly addressed the accusations and confirmed her place on the show. “No, I haven’t left the show.” She said, “I am very much a part of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah.”

Ambika said she wasn’t there for personal reasons, saying, “Well, I was away for some personal reasons.” I needed some time alone. Many fans are relieved to hear this clarification because they were worried that another prominent character might leave the long-running show, which has had a lot of high-profile cast members leave in the past.

Several important performers have left the show in the last few years, including Kush Shah, who played Goli, and his father, Dr. Hansraj Hathi, who was played by Nirmal Soni. This pattern made the rumors about Ambika stronger.

At the same time, the sitcom is still growing its world. The Binjola family, who are from Rajasthan, just moved into Gokuldham Society as permanent residents. Kuldeep Gor and Dharti Bhatt play the parents, and Akshaan Sehrawat and Maahi Bhadra play their kids.

Fans can be sure that Komal Hathi will still be a member of the beloved show’s ensemble cast because Ambika Ranjankar has confirmed it.
