Inspired by the hugely popular Indian sitcom Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, Gada Electronics' mobile game has surpassed 10 million downloads on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store, marking an incredible milestone.
The idle-arcade business simulation game is based on Jethalal’s legendary shop, “Gada Electronics,” and offers fans a fun and engaging way to experience the TMKOC universe.
This achievement marks a significant moment in Indian gaming, as Gada Electronics becomes the first game from an independent Indian gaming studio to reach such figures in 2025. The game has remained one of the top-rated titles on both major app platforms, with players enthusiastically embracing the chance to manage and grow the fictional shop.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Asit Kumarr Modi, Founder of Neela Mediatech, remarked, “This milestone is not just a number, it reflects the emotional connection that audiences have with our characters. With Gada Electronics, we’re proud to show that Indian IP, when nurtured with care, can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with global gaming titles. To hit 10 million downloads in such a short span as an independent Indian gaming studio is a big moment, not just for us, but for the future of Indian gaming.”
Mr. Harjeet Chhabra, CEO of Neela Mediatech, added, “We are witnessing good retention as well as in-app purchases for this game. We are already witnessing interest from international publishers to partner with us on Gada Electronics. We are now scaling it into TIER 1 markets and by the ongoing trend we are expecting this game to be valued at ₹200 crore plus in the next 18 to 24 months.”
Additional games centred around beloved TMKOC characters are also being developed by Neela Mediatech. These include a detective-themed game with Popatlal, a game about Roshan and his garage, and a business simulation game about Madhvi's papad and pickle business.
