A challenge for directors of shows like Tahidi High is maintaining interest while replacing talented cast members who have aged beyond their roles. The show has seen the departure of major talents such as Tanya, OJ, and Shish, who outgrew their parts. However, some current cast members have been playing high school students for three years despite being significantly older.
Papa Shirandula's actress Wilbroda recently commented on this issue, suggesting that some Tahidi High actors are as old as parents. Her remark garnered a reaction from the public, with one commenter jokingly proposing that the show be renamed 'Gumbaru School'.
Wilbroda's criticism raises questions about potential tension between the casts of Tahidi High and Papa Shirandula, given that both shows air on the same TV station and are competitive.
