Renowned Gujarati writer and playwright Taarak Mehta passed away at 87, today, due to old age. He was best known for his Gujarati column Duniya Ne Undha Chasma in which he touched upon contemporary issues with a tinge of humour. Mehta has translated and adapted several comedies into Gujarati, and has been popular in Gujarati theatre.
In 2008 SAB TV began a show Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah which draws its content from his column Duniya Ne Undha Chasma. Such has been the content of the show that it has become extremely popular with the masses. Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has condoled the passing away of Indian columnist, humorist and playwright Shri Taarak Mehta.
