Dilip Joshi's sudden absence from the popular show, 'Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chasmah' worries his fans. Check out where the actor has gone!
One of the finest actors of Indian television, Dilip Joshi, is more than just Jethalal from the second longest-running Indian sitcom, Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. He started his acting journey as Ramu with the Salman Khan starrer film, Maine Pyaar Kiya, and has gone from earning Rs. 50 per day to Rs. 1.50 lakhs per episode. Dilip did not see overnight success but had struggled for it since ages.
With the household comedy daily soap, TMKOC, Dilip has etched a special place in the hearts of many, as every time, he brings something fresh to the table with a pinch of light-hearted comedy. His character, Jethalal Champaklal Gada is undoubtedly the soul of the show, but it is also his camaraderie with Babita (played by Munmun Dutta), which is immensely famous among the fans.

On September 14, 2022, Dilip Joshi took to his IG handle and shared two mesmerising pictures from his USA trip. As the actor was missing from the TMKOC sets for a while, now his fans know where he is. In the picture, Dilip was seen posing flawlessly in a red checkered shirt and brown pants amidst nature. However, what caught our attention was his fan's witty reaction to Dilip’s time off from the TMKOC sets. One user took to the comment section and wrote, “Sir galat baat hai. Yaha Babita ji humse puch rahi hai kaha hai jetha ji. Another netizen penned, “Even Jethalal needs a break.”
Earlier, in an interview with the ETimes, Sachin Shroff had opened up on replacing Sailesh Lodha on the popular show, TMKOC. He had added how he would give it the old college try and had said:
“I will try my best to fit into the shoes of this famous character of Taarak Mehta. Jis Tarah se paani mein shakar ghul jaata hai swaad anusar waise hi I will try my best to do justice to the role. I just want to request everyone to keep continuing to love our show and shower their blessings."

Speaking of Dilip Joshi’s personal life, he has a daughter, Niyati, and we felt so old after learning the same! She had tied the knot with her long-time beau, Yashowardhan Mishra, on December 11, 2021, at the grand Taj Mahal hotel in Mumbai. As soon as Niyati’s wedding pictures were out, her bridal look had taken social media by storm as she was seen flaunting her grey hair with pride. In an old interview with ETimes, Dilip Joshi talked about his daughter, Niyati’s bold move and how he was happy that she inspired millions of brides-to-be. Stating that it was never a point of discussion in his family, Dilip had said:
“Keeping her grey hair as it is at her wedding was never an issue for us. We didn’t even imagine that people would react like this. It was never a point of discussion in our house. Jo jaisa hai woh waisa hi theek hai. Everyone reacted in such a positive way and I was happy to see that she has inspired others. I think this is how we should be; we present ourselves the way we are rather than putting on a mask.”
We are eagerly waiting for Dilip Joshi to make a comeback on the show, Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chasmah. What about you?
