Shailesh is a poet, actor, comedian, and writer. Shailesh first appeared on Comedy Circus as a contestant, and later in Comedy Ka Mahamukabla. The actor was also the main presenter in the TV program Wah! Wah! Kya Baat Hai which aired on Sab TV. He is best known for playing Taarak Mehta in the popular show Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah
However, actor quit Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah in 2022 as he was deeply hurt by the uncultured behaviour of producer Asit Modi. In an interaction with the Etimes, Shailesh stated the reason for leaving the show and said, "Asit Kumarr Modi spoke to me in a very uncultured, derogatory tone, which I couldn’t tolerate. Mujhe bardaasht nahi hua (I could not tolerate), this was not the first time. At that time, he had said, “Yahan par sab kaam karne waale mere naukar hai (Everyone working here is my servant.) That time also, I’d objected to him and his language." He recently won a lawsuit against Asit Modi, the producer of Taarak Mehta ka Ooltah Chashmah, for non-payment of dues.
