Inspired by the famous Gujarati column 𝗗𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘆𝗮 𝗡𝗲 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗵𝗮 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗺𝗮 by Taarak Mehta, this show captures the everyday life in Gokuldham Co-operative Society, addressing socially relevant issues with humor. At its heart is Jethalal, an uneducated Gujarati businessman, who often seeks guidance from his wise neighbor and friend, Taarak Mehta. Jethalal lives with his naive yet lovable wife Daya Ben and their mischievous son Tapu, whose antics frequently disrupt the peace of the society. The members often warn Jethalal to control Tapu or face eviction. In desperation, he calls his father, Champaklal, from the village, hoping he’ll instill discipline in Tapu. Instead, the grandfather-grandson duo teams up, creating even more chaos and turning Jethalal’s life into a comedic roller coaster. The show blends family dynamics, friendship, and neighborhood bonds with a dose of satire and laughter.
