New Delhi. TV’s famous sitcom, ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’ has been in the headlines for a long time. This show of Asit Modi, which is often in the headlines with new and old artists, is once again in the headlines. Producer Asit Modi was accused by many stars of the show. Recently news came out that there was a fight between actor Dilip Joshi, who played the role of ‘Jethalal’, and Asit Modi. When the news spread like wildfire on social media, ‘Jethalal’ himself broke his silence on this matter. He condemned the fight and described these reports as nonsense and disappointing.
What is the truth about the feud between Asit Modi and Dilip Joshi? This was disclosed by ‘Jethalal’ himself. He issued an official statement, in which he clearly said that some reports have come out in the media about me and Asit Bhai, which are completely false and I feel very sad to see such things being said. ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’ is a show that means a lot to me and millions of fans and when people spread baseless rumours, it not only hurts us but also our loyal viewers.
This is disappointing because…
He further said, ‘It is disappointing to see negativity being spread about something that has given so much happiness to so many people for so many years. Every time such rumors surface, it seems as if we are constantly being explained that they are completely false. It’s tiring and it’s frustrating because it’s not just about us – it’s about all the fans who love the show and get upset reading these things.
Are you jealous of the show’s success?
Dilip Joshi also said that such rumors might have been spread by people who are jealous of the success of the show. Earlier, there were also rumors of me leaving the show, which are completely false and now, it seems like every few weeks, there is another new story trying to defame Asit Bhai and the show in some way. It is disappointing to see such things. Coming up again and again, and sometimes, I wonder are some people jealous of the show’s continued success?
Denied talks of leaving the show
Refuting talks of leaving the show, he made it clear that he has no plans to leave TMKOC, because it is a show which has made him famous in every household. He said that we all stand together in our commitment to make this show the best it can be, and I just wish that the media would check the facts once before publishing such a sad story. So let’s focus on the positivity and happiness that this show brings.
The show has been in the headlines before too
This is not the first time that Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah and people associated with the show have come into limelight. Earlier, several stars including Shailesh Lodha, Jennifer Mistry and Palak Sindhwani had left the show citing harassment, misbehavior and non-payment of dues at the hands of Modi and co-producers. Jennifer Mistry had also accused Modi of sexual harassment. The matter is in court.
