Previously while talking about the resumption of the shoot, actor Dilip Joshi who is seen as Jethalal in the show told TOI, Asit bhai called us and he took our opinion on the same. Even he was a little confused. At the end of the day, he is answerable for anything that happens on the set. Today’s was a very basic meeting. Abhi aur soch vichaar karenge, detailed planning ke baad hi start hoga. We are positive about it."
While actress Mummun Dutta who plays Babita Ji said, "Different people have different opinions regarding the situation but I definitely want to get back to work and resume a normal life. We all have done our part and stayed at home. But now we all have to look at the bigger picture too. With how the situation is currently, it is evident that we have to live with the virus until vaccines are available, just like we live with many other deadly viruses and bacteria. People cannot be under lockdown forever. It’s a good thing that things are opening up in phases. I will be happy to get back to work with as many precautions as possible."
Interestingly, the fresh episodes are beginning 6 days prior to the show's 12 year anniversary which falls on July 28. Ever since its beginning, the show has been capturing everyone's attention not just through its storyline but also interesting characters and a controversy revolving around Disha Vakani who played the role of Dayaben in the show. It has always remained on the top of the popularity charts and even during the lockdown period, it was just the next most-watched after Ramayam and Mahabharat when Sab TV plugged the old episodes.
