Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah actor Munmun Dutta posted a long note on Instagram in which he reflects on his early days. He shared a series of photos when he was 17 years old and shot his first commercial for a car brand. In the pictures, the actress looked stunning in a black dress as she posed with a yellow car. In the background we see the beauty of Kerala – a body of water and coconut trees. Taking a walk down memory lane, Munmun wrote, “One from the archives. 17 years old shooting my first ad for a Skoda car in the backwaters of Kerala. Oh how excited I was to get this opportunity as an absolute newcomer to the industry and the city of Mumbai.”
Munmun Dutta recalled how he used to travel by plane for ad shoots, which was a “tremendous luxury” for him at the time. He said: “The added benefit was getting to travel to another beautiful place on a flight because it was the second time I got the chance to be on a flight and I was excited because it was the only way to get on a plane because I didn’t have the money to buy a ticket for myself. And that’s it at a point in my life where I could barely get by, traveling by plane was definitely a huge luxury.
At the end of the note, Munmun Dutta expressed his gratitude by writing, “Everything in my life took time. The struggles were endless and I am grateful for everything that has shaped me today. A big pat on the back, and God has been kind.”
Just a few months ago, Munmun Dutta was rumored to be engaged to her Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah co-star, Raj Anadkat. However, soon after the news broke in the media, both the Actors dismissed the rumours. On his Instagram Stories, Raj posted a note: “Hi everyone, to clarify things, the news you have seen on social media is false and baseless. Team Raj Anadkat.” Munmun told ETimes: “This news is ridiculous, fake and ridiculous, and frankly, I don’t want to give my energy to this fake that comes out again and again.”
Munmun Dutta made her acting debut in the 2004 serial Hum Sab Baraat. He plays the role of Babita Krishnan Iyer in the film Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah.
