It’s been quite some time since the fan favourite ‘Dayaben’ made an appearance on the show. Disha Vakhani had been on maternity leave for a while and despite the makers’ repeated efforts, it does not seem like she will be coming back to the show. Hence, the makers had to look for a potential replacement for the character of ‘Dayaben’.

Hence, the makers have shortlisted some actresses for the same. Earlier, Ami Trivedi’s name was being talked about, but there wasn’t any confirmation on it.

A SpotboyE report suggests that the makers have finally selected ‘Bade Achhe Lagte Hain’s actress Vibhuti Sharma for the coveted role. If reports are to be believed, Vibhuti has already taken a mock test for the role. He is in the final stages of getting locked on for the show.

Despite all these, there is a report by Pinkvilla doing the rounds which suggests that auditions are still on for the replacement. The makers have kept it pretty low profile so that no speculations are out in the media. So, for now, let’s wait for an official confirmation from the makers of the show or from Vibhuti Sharma herself.
