With Dharmendra's death, the film industry has lost one of its most respected and talented legends. Asit Kumar Modi's Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah will pay a heartfelt tribute to the late actor by dedicating its New Year celebration episode to his memory, honouring his immense contribution to Indian cinema.
TMKOC is set to welcome the New Year with warmth, nostalgia, and heartfelt emotions, as Gokuldham Society dedicates its December 31 episode to the timeless legacy of legendary superstar Dharmendra Ji. The idea of dedicating the New Year's episode was of the producer and the creator of the show, Asit Kumarr Modi.
The previous episode shows Tappu Sena proposing the idea to Madhavi and Bhide, saying, "Is baar 31st December, ham sab ke favourite actor Dharmendra ji ko yaad kar ke celebrate karenge (sic)." Gogi then adds, "Unki (Dharmendra) yaad me ham jabardast program karenge aur dhoom dhaam se 31st manayenge." Impressed by the idea, the society’s secretary, Bhide, gives his permission. This leaves Tappu Sena cheering with excitement.
In the upcoming episode, members of Gokuldham Society will be seen dressing up as Dharmendra while paying a heartfelt tribute to the legendary actor. The special episode will celebrate his iconic journey in cinema, highlighting his memorable roles across action, romance, and comedy films.
Remembering Dharmendra and how his show will be paying to Dharmendra, Asit said, "Dharmendra ji's contribution to Hindi cinema is truly timeless. The films I watched in my childhood remain etched in my heart, and through every role, be it comedy, romance, action or drama, he brought an unmatched warmth and sincerity to the screen."
TMKOC creator Asit felt heartbroken amid the death of the legendary actor. He wrote, "#Dharmendra ji The farewell has made me very sad, every movie I watched in my childhood is still in my heart, be it comedy, fights or romance or any role they could do it easily, my meetings with them always Will always be remembered in hearts and minds (sic)."
