Actor Munmun Dutta, who has been an inseparable part of the immensely popular television show Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah (TMKOC) for over a decade, recently found herself at the center of swirling rumours suggesting her exit from the show. As fans speculated over her prolonged absence from recent episodes, several media portals and social media handles began reporting that she had allegedly quit the series. However, putting all rumours to rest, the actor has now come forward with a clear message — “Rumours are not always true.”
Known for her portrayal of the beloved character Babita Iyer, Munmun Dutta has been an audience favorite for years. Her chemistry with the show’s characters, particularly with Jethalal (played by Dilip Joshi), has been a major source of comic relief and fan admiration.

Addressing these rumours directly, Munmun took to her Instagram stories to respond with dignity and clarity. She wrote, “I sincerely request media portals and certain social media pages to not speculate and spread unverified news. I have not quit the show. Rumours are not always true.” Her brief but powerful response was enough to reassure her fans and confirm that she continues to be associated with Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah.
This is not the first time Munmun has had to deal with gossip regarding her professional journey. As a public figure, she has often been the subject of unnecessary scrutiny — be it about her personal life, onscreen presence, or health updates. However, she has consistently shown grace in addressing such matters and maintained her professionalism, which her fans deeply respect.
Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, which first aired in 2008, is one of Indian television’s longest-running and most-loved sitcoms. Produced by Asit Kumarr Modi under Neela Film Productions, the show’s strength lies in its ensemble cast and humorous yet socially relevant storytelling. Over the years, the show has witnessed several cast exits and new entries, which often spark curiosity and anxiety among its loyal viewers. But as the show evolves, the return of familiar faces like Munmun Dutta plays a key role in maintaining continuity and charm.
Munmun’s clarification comes as a relief to many who feared that yet another original cast member might be exiting the show. Her statement is a gentle reminder to both fans and media outlets to avoid jumping to conclusions without verified information. In the fast-paced world of entertainment, where stories go viral within minutes, celebrities often become easy targets of misinformation. Her choice to address the rumour with calmness rather than confrontation reflects her maturity and strong connect with her audience.
As of now, viewers can breathe easy knowing that Babita Ji is not going anywhere. Fans are hopeful that Munmun Dutta will soon be back on screen with the same energy, elegance, and wit that has made her character iconic.
In conclusion, while speculation is inevitable in the world of television and entertainment, actors like Munmun Dutta prove that the best way to tackle rumours is with truth and composure. With her graceful response, she has once again proven why she is not just a celebrated actor, but also a respected voice in the industry.
Stay tuned to Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah for more laughs, life lessons, and hopefully more of Babita Ji in the episodes to come.
