Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah's old Sonu aka Nidhi Bhanushali surprised a social media user after she posted photos of her new haircut. The actress has gone with short haircut this time and looks unrecognizable.

In the photos, Nidhi, who is currently gone for a vacation in Bali, can be seen wearing a tank top with blue denim shorts. She is all smiles for the camera and captioned her album as, "Umm yeah."

Her photos have received both praise and criticism in the comment section of her instagram handle. Former Tapu aka Bhavya Gandhi wrote in the comment section, "Niceeee." One user wrote, "Oh my god you look beautiful."Another user wrote, I liked you in taarak Mehta ka ooltah chashmah , “I really think you should get back to the show,anyways, your new haircut gives you a very different look from before”.

However, there were others who just didn't like her new look. A netizen commented, "But your dreadlocks were awesome!!" Another commented, "Kya kr liya tumne khud ka haal (What have you done to yourself)?"

Nidhi Bhanushali quit Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah in 2019. She was loved in the role of Sonu by the audience. Now she is busy with her travel vlogs.

The actress told a media person in December last year that she has not been watching Taarak but is still friends with many of her co-stars and even the director of the show.

She said, "I stopped watching it long ago. Even when I was on it, I did not see it habitually enough. I don't watch much Television anyway. Maintaining relationships with your former co-actors can be done, even without watching the show regularly. Recently, the show's director Malav and his wife (Rita Reporter) renewed their wedding vows; I met a lot of 'TMKOC' actors there."
