<p>Actor Dilip Joshi has finally addressed the rumours surrounding his alleged altercation with Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah producer Asit Modi. In a statement, Joshi dismissed the reports as "completely false" and questioned whether certain individuals might be envious of the show's ongoing success. He expressed his surprise over such unfounded claims, emphasizing that there was no truth to the allegations. The actor stated, "I just want to clear the air about all these rumors 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. Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah is a show that means so much to me and millions of fans, and when people spread baseless rumours, it hurts not only us but also our loyal viewers." Joshi added, "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." The statement further read, "Earlier, there were even rumours about me leaving the show, which is completely false. And now, it feels like every few weeks, there's another new story trying to defame Asit bhai and the show in some way. It's disappointing to see such things popping up again and again, and sometimes, I can't help but wonder if some people are just jealous of the show's continued success. I don't know who is behind spreading these stories, but I want to say this clearly: I'm here, I'm working every day with the same love and passion for the show, and I'm not going anywhere. I've been a part of this wonderful journey for so long, and I will continue to be a part of it."</p><p>Joshi, who plays the role of Jethalal in the popular sitcom, concluded by saying, "We all stand together in our commitment to make this show the best it can be, and I just wish the media would take a moment to verify the facts before printing such hurtful stories. Let's focus on the positivity and joy that this show brings to so many. Thank you to our fans for always supporting us-it really means the world." According to several media reports, the actor became angry during a heated argument with Asit. In a fit of rage, he allegedly grabbed Modi by the collar and threatened to quit the show. However, it was reported that Modi managed to calm him down. The incident, which reportedly occurred in August, was said to have been triggered by a leave request. </p>
