Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah: Dilip Joshi Once Defeated Kapil Sharma By Bagging This Award For Comedy

Both Dilip Joshi and Kapil Sharma are two of the greatest comedy actors in the history of Indian television. Both had their own struggles before reaching the top and now, they have made a special place in the hearts of the Indian audience. While Dilip continues to entertain the audience through his cult sitcom, Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, Kapil has reached new heights in the comedy genre. But there was a time when the duo competed with each other in the awards show.

Dilip is undoubtedly one of the most popular actors in Indian television. His portrayal of Jethalal in TMKOC has made him immensely popular, and his character is considered iconic in television history. For over 16 years, he’s still essaying the role, making the audience laugh out loud. He’s simply unbeatable, and his comic timing and sense make him stand out. He once bagged a trophy for such a great quality despite tough competition.

It was in 2012 that Dilip Joshi was nominated in the Favorite TV Comedy Actor category at the People’s Choice Award. For those who don’t know, the winners were chosen based on people’s votes in this award show. Other than Dilip, Kapil Sharma (Comedy Circus), Jeetu Shivhare (Chidiya Ghar), and Krushna Abhishek (Comedy Circus) were also nominated in the same category.
