She added, “Change is inevitable and the only constant thing but to change something one needs to change self! Very important thought that has been beautifully executed and shown through the mother. Everyone played their roles well, right from the director, writer, editor, artists, singers, choreographers to designers… Pre production and post production everything taken care beautifully…. Not just that… We got a packet of Dhokla mix, microwaveable Popcorn packet and a beautiful book of all proverbs used in the movie alongside stories based on it! Pl do watch the movie with your entire family.”
Bhavya Gandhi, who became a household name after playing the role of Jethalal and Dayaben’s son Tappu, quit the show in 2017 to venture into the films. He was a part of the show since its inception in 2008. Upon his exit, he told indianexpress.com, “I know right now I can explore myself as an actor. This is the age to grow, so, I thought I should move beyond this character. I will now be seen on the big screen and I am hopeful I will be received with love in films the way I was on the small screen.”
