Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah has a mass fan following of every age and gender. In a recent interview, Sonalika shared funny fan moments. The actress shared that people often mistake their reel selves for their real selves and thought she is actually married to Mandar Chandwadkar who plays Atmaram Bhide. Sonalika told ETimes, “There have also been funny incidents like they feel we are for real. I meet many people who ask if we have a vacant flat in our Gokuldham society. They feel that I run the pickle and papad business and I am a dealer who can help them with flat (laughs). Then I explain to them that it is a set and when we go inside from the balcony there is nothing inside. It is only a wall inside and it is not true. They don’t believe it.”
She added, “There have been so many instances when people think that Bhide (Mandar Chandwadkar) and I are husband and wife. Initially, when Mandar and my family would go together to a restaurant and we would sit with our real families, fans would come to us and ask if we were husband-wife in real life. They would not care that we are sitting with our family.”
