Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah episode 4174 recap: Tapu requests Bagha to help Abdul out, but secretly

Now that Bhide knows about Abdul’s worries, Sonu does too, and she informs Tapu Sena about it. Tapu is unwilling to stay quiet after knowing that one of his own members is struggling. Thus, he comes up with an idea and reaches his father Jethalal’s store (while Jethalal is on his Hyderabad trip) to seek help from Bagha. Tapu took the first steps to execute his plan in helping Abdul out, in the latest episode of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah (available for streaming on SonyLIV and OTTplay Premium). Here’s a recap of what happened…

Why is Tapu at Jethalal’s shop, talking to Bagha?

Tapu had ruined Bagha and Bawri’s plans to hide her from Jethalal after she co-incidentally entered the store in the owner’s absence. While Bagha was on video call with Jethalal, he confidently wanted to show the owner around the shop to verify that Bawri is not around. However, at the very time, Bawri entered the shop. On Natu Kaka’s instructions, she hid behind Bagha, while he gave Jethalal a virtual tour of the shop. Just then, Tapu entered and said hi to Bawri while the call was still on.

Once he got a scolding from Jethalal, Bagha questioned Tapu about the reason for him being at the shop. Tapu places his hand forward, and Bagha starts searching for money. Tapu stops him, stating he wants a promise not to spill their secret in front of anyone.

Tapu requests Popatlal’s help with finding the wholesaler’s number who provides goods to Abdul’s store

Tapu wants the wholesaler's number who Abdul buys his essentials from. On hearing so, Bagha laughs and asks them to talk to Abdul directly. He says he doesn't have the number. Tapu wants Bagha to retrieve the number for them.

Tapu finally finds the wholesaler’s number

Abdul still has 50 percent discount in his store and is happily selling all the goods to customers. Abdul questions Bagha why does he need the wholesaler's number, and Tapu suggests to tell Abdul that his friend wants to open a store and thus, needs the wholesaler's number. After some back-and-forth, Abdul does sell the wholesaler's number. Post that, Bagha proceeds to go back to the store, while Tapu prepares to call the wholesaler as a shopkeeper.
