Dilip Joshi aka Jethalal had revealed in an earlier interview that the show's writing had declined over time. Read on to know what all he had said.
Dilip Joshi has been portraying the character of Jethalal Champaklal Gada in the highly successful show 'Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah' since 2008. The audience's love towards the show has been evident in the high TRPs that the sitcom garners each week.
The humour in 'TMKOC' has always been highly appreciated. Although, Dilip Joshi aka Jethalal had revealed in 2020 that the show's writing had suffered in time as he felt that certain episodes were 'not up to the mark as far as the humour is concerned'.
While speaking to comedian Sorabh Pant in a podcast, Dilip had mentioned that as the writers are pressured to deliver episodes every day, the quality of the content has suffered. He had said, "Jab aap quantity dekhte hai, toh kahin na kahin quality suffer hoti hi hai. Pehle weekly hum karte the aur writers ke paas bohot time hota tha. Chaar episode likhe, doosre chaar episode agle mahine shoot karna hai (When you focus on quantity, the quality does suffer somewhere. Initially, it was a weekly show and the writers had a lot of time. With four episodes being shot per month, they had a gap of a month to write the next four episodes)."
"Abhi yeh almost like a factory ho gaya hai (now it has become almost like a factory). Every day the writers have to find new subjects. After all, they are also human beings. I agree that all the episodes cannot be of that level when you are doing a daily show for such a long time. I do feel that certain episodes are not up to the mark as far as the humour is concerned," he had further added.
For the unversed, the show is based on the weekly column "Duniya Ne Undha Chasma" by the late humorist, columnist, playwright, and author Taarak Mehta.
