Dilip Joshi

Maybe nobody can say ‘Tappu ka Pappa’ with a guffaw better than Disha Vakani who plays Daya Jethalal Gada on SAB TV’s Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah (Neela Telefilms). She plays the dear wife of Jethalal (Dilip Joshi) and loving mother of Tappu (Bhavya Gandhi). Excerpts from the interview she exclusively gave to Tellychakkar.com...

Versatile Dilip Joshi, who started off in Galatnama in 1994 and furthered it up with shows like <em>Kabhi Yeh Kabhi Woh, Zara Hatke, Agadam Bagdam Tigdam, F.I.R.</em> (TV series) and <em>C.I.D</em> among others, has endeared himself to viewers of Taraak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah</em> (Asit Modi’s Neela Teelfilms) on SAB TV by playing Jethalal Champaklal Gada with effortless ease.

It was a sin to keep one of the finest exponents of comedy away from his forte. However, amends have been made and viewers will once again see seasoned actor Dilip Joshi at his hilarious best in SAB TV’s new comedy serial Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, which is an adaptation of the literary work of the famous Gujarati writer Taarak Mehta. It’s not only a return to comedy for Dilip but he’s also sporting a younger look for this show. Tellychakkar caught up with the actor for a brief chat at the show’s launch. <strong>
