JD Majethia claims cops asked him ‘aadhe-tedhe’ questions in Gurucharan Singh missing case: ‘They thought I was avoiding them’

Producer JD Majethia, who has made shows like Sarabhai vs Sarabhai and Khichdi for Indian television, recently shared that he was questioned by the cops after actor Gurucharan Singh, of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah fame, went missing a few months ago. Majethia claimed that was asked “aadhe-tedhe sawaal (twisted questions)” by the cops even though he had no connection with the actor, aside from meeting him once at a social gathering.

In a chat with Siddharth Kannan on his YouTube channel, JD Majethia shared, “I had gotten a call from an actor I had once worked with, she was very scared and frantically called me multiple times. I was in a channel meeting, yet I took the call, and she informed me that Gurucharan was missing for a week. She informed me that she had gone to receive him at the Mumbai Airport, but he never came. I found something fishy, so I immediately called CINTAA, Asit Modi, and the channel. I was in touch with them, and later when the Delhi police came, I was questioned too.

“They held a proper inquiry. We could not meet in the initial two days so they thought I was avoiding them, they asked me lots of aadhe-tedhe sawaal (twisted questions). I have no connection with Sodhi other than meeting him at a function once. In the end, the cops told me that they never found anyone like me in Mumbai,” Majethia said.

In April, Gurucharan went missing for almost a month. While the actual reason for his disappearance remains unknown, the actor said that he had left the worldly life to go on a religious journey.
