In an interaction with Times Now News, Dilips Joshi responded to the reports of his fight with Asit Modi. He cleared the air and stated that the rumours about his fight with Asit Modi were all false. He has no idea from where the rumours came up, but they are all fake. Dilip Joshi further added:

"I just want to clear the air about all these rumours going around. There have been some stories in the media about me and Asit Bhai that are completely false, and it really saddens me to see such things being said...It’s disheartening to see negativity being spread about something that has brought so much joy to so many for so many years. Every time such rumours pop up, it feels like we’re constantly explaining that they are completely untrue. 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."
