Shailesh Lodha wins ₹1 crore lawsuit against Asit Modi.

Shailesh quit the show last year after 14 years of successful participation as the titular writer in the comedy show.

the lawsuit was filed against Asit for non-payment of dues and he will now pay the actor, via demand draft, a total amount of ₹1.05 crore. Shailesh had approached the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) for clearance of his dues after the producers failed to do so.

“This fight was never about the money. It was about seeking justice and self-respect. I feel like I have won a battle and I’m happy that the truth has prevailed." said Shailesh according to the reports.

Without naming anyone, Shailesh also told the daily that soon after he filed his suit, the producers called an actor and cleared his payments that had been due for three years.
