string strUpdatedStatusName = ((TextBox)e.Item.Cells[0].Controls[0]).Text;
change to
// string strUpdatedStatusName = ((TextBox)e.Item.Cells[0].Controls[0]).Text;
Trace.Write ("What type is this control",e.Item.Cells[0].Controls[0].GetType)
and add Trace="true" to page.
then you will see what that control really is.....
