TNN | Jun 3, 2016,

aarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah has done it once again. TMKOC has added another feather to its cap.LIMCA Book of Records has pronounced TMKOC as the "Longest Running Comedy Show".

"We had started telecasting the show on 28 July 2008 inspite of adverse comments and advice from people on the very concept and story of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah . However, I was confident and so was my entire team and actors. We knew that there was a gaping hole in the entertainment industry for a family entertainer," says Asit Kumarr Modi .

"Today we stand vindicated. This acknowledgement from LIMCA Book of Records proves that show is well liked and has a constant as well as big fan following. Otherwise no show can sustain for so long on any channel. I thank my channel SAB TV for trusting my instincts about the concept," he added.
