The cast and crew of one of the popular comedy show Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah were in Ahmedabad recently to shoot an episode. The shoot, which was carried out at the Sabarmati riverfront, saw the lead actors Dilip Joshi aka Jethalal and Disha Vakani aka Daya enjoying a motorboat ride apart from having some more fun moments. Actors Mayur Vakani (Sundarlal) and Daya Shankar Pandey (Inspector Chalo Pandey) were also present at the shoot. As word spread, many gathered to catch their favourite stars live in action. And in between shots, Disha spoke to TOI while adding final touches to her make-up. She said, "This is the first time we are shooting outdoors and I am thoroughly enjoying it." At this, Dilip added with a smile, "Who will not enjoy so many free boat rides!" Talking about the popularity of the show, Disha said, "We have entered the sixth year of the show and the audiences' love for us is only increasing by the day. Hum toh jaise unke ghar ke sadasya ban gaye hai." Dilip added, "I am proud to be a part of this show. This is the first comedy show that has beaten the popularity of daily soaps. As an actor, it is an achievement for us because an actor thrives for such love from the audience and the popularity of their shows." About shooting at the riverfront, producer Asit Modi said, "I always dreamt of shooting here. For Raksha bandhan, we thought of giving something special to the viewers so we decided to give a unique treatment to the episode. Although we have shot a number of times in Ahmedabad, giving variety to audiences is important for us. That way, we also give respect to the region. Humara bhi mann hota hai yahan baar baar shoot karne ka kyunki logo ka cooperation milta hai." The fun and masti continued long after the shoot got over.
