Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah (TMKOC), one of the longest-running TV shows, is once again in the news for the wrong reasons. According to the media reports Actor Dilip Joshi, who plays Jethalal Gada's role - one of the leading characters - on the show and producer Asit Modi reportedly had an ugly argument on the sets of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. The media reports suggested that the argument took place when Joshi reached out to the producer to have a talk about his leaves, Modi ignored him which led to the heated spat. However, the actor now refuted the media reports.
Earlier a report published in News18 quoted the sources close to the production house and claimed that the spat between the duo prompted Joshi to pull Modi's collar. The source elaborated that the actor felt insulted when Modi tried to overlook his attempt to speak to him. Instead of listening to the actor, the producer went to meet actor Kush Shah - who played Goli's role on the show and wrapped his last shoot, the sources said in the media reports.
