Completing 500 episodes is an achievement, and we will continue to entertain the audience, with a hope that they will keep us loving. We always wanted to maintain the show for people of all ages. In today's time where children have started watching shows of different kinds, on different platforms, I'm happy to know that they love our show and my character. Our aim to teach them something on a regular basis will continue."

Talking about the success, Manav Gohil, said, “We are extremely grateful to our lovely audience who has always been supportive and have appreciated our work. The journey so far would have been impossible without their support and love."

Adding to this thought, actor Panjak Berry said, "This is a team achievement and I'm very excited to have completed 500 episodes of the show. To be very honest, this show has taught me a lot. Playing my character with different shades has given me a different perspective, and I'm looking forward to achieving more with Tenali Rama."
