Dilip Joshi, known for playing Jethalal onTaarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, is a very private person and does not usually open up about his life but in a recent interview, Dilip spoke about his love story with his wife..

Dilip called his story a Balika Vadhu type story as his wife was just 14, and he was 18, when they got engaged...

When asked about how he managed work-life balance amid his very busy schedule on his television show, he told Mashable India, Romance toh hua hi nahi (There was no romance)..

It is only after I got into drama and acting that I gained the confidence to talk, he said.. Dilip also spoke about his hectic work schedule and said that with six episodes in a week, he hardly gets any time for himself or his family...

Initially, we had to shoot five episodes per week, so twenty episodes in a month, so if you multiply one-and-a-half days by twenty then it is thirty days..
