Disha Vakani played a pivotal role in making Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah show a success. She essayed the role of Dayaben and made fans fall insanely in love with her. It was in 2017 that she went on a break as she got pregnant. Though fans rooted for her to return to the show post her maternity break, Disha Vakani chose to stay away. Till date the makers have not been able to find another Dayaben for Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. Recently, rumours went rife that Disha made some demands from the makers for her return.

Rumours suggest that Disha Vakani asked for a fee hike. She allegedly demanded Rs 1.5 lakh per episode and that too only for 3 hours of work. She also asked for a nursery and a full time nanny for her child on the sets of the show. These demands allegedly came from her husband Mayur as he started leading the negotiations. These claims have been made by an Instagram page called Jeejaji, as reported by Koimoi. There is no confirmation on these reports either from the makers of the show or from the actress. Disha Vakani's popularity sky-rocketed as she played Dayaben and we seriously hope that she comes back to play the role.
