Munmun Dutta, who plays the role of Babita in the popular sitcom Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, has shared a shocking revelation on her Instagram story. The actress said that she was supposed to be in Israel right now, but had to postpone her trip due to her hectic shooting schedule. She expressed her gratitude to God for saving her from what could have been a fatal situation.
Munmun Dutta posted a picture of her passport with the Israeli visa stamp and wrote, “I am shuddering about the fact that I was supposed to be in Israel right now. My tickets were booked but had to postpone it for the next week as my night shift suddenly extended as there were few extra scenes added.”

She added, “As much as I felt sad then, I am absolutely convinced now that there was a higher power in play that saved me from what could have potentially killed me. I don’t know what and how to express my gratitude. This reiterates the fact that there’s god and jo bhi hota hai acche ke liye hota hai. I hope Israel finds peace, the world finds peace.”
Israel and Hamas at war
Munmun Dutta’s trip cancellation came at a time when Israel and Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that controls Gaza, are engaged in a deadly war. On Saturday, October 7, Hamas launched an unprecedented attack on Israel from air, sea and land, killing at least 700 Israelis and taking many hostages. Israel retaliated with massive airstrikes on Gaza, killing at least 560 Palestinians and warning of a possible ground invasion.
The international community has expressed concern over the escalating violence and called for an immediate ceasefire. The United Nations Security Council is expected to hold an emergency meeting on Sunday to discuss the crisis.
