Taarak Mehta's producer reaches out to Harold & Kumar cult star Kal Penn for a part in the show after his Ladies Bhai video goes viral
Letty Mariam Abraham (MID-DAY; May 2, 2019)

The innocent remark got a prompt reply from Penn, who wrote, "You joke but this has legit been a goal", thus sending Twitterati into a frenzy. Soon enough, fans started urging the makers of the sitcom to rope in the Indo-American actor.
On his part, Asit Kumarr Modi, producer of TMKOC, wrote to the actor, "Kalpen bhai! Great to hear from you, I already have an empty flat beside Jethalal's in Gokuldham so you're always welcome (sic)."
When mid-day reached out to the producer, he revealed that he had already initiated a conversation with Penn. "I will be happy to have him on board, even if it's for a few episodes. I have asked him to DM [direct message] his contact number to me. I will take it forward from there."
Modi, whose show has given the memorable characters of Jethalal and Dayaben to Indian viewers, added that the colourful personality of Penn's Ladies Bhai is a perfect fit in the eccentric world of Gokuldham. "He is an effortless actor with perfect comic timing. Taarak Mehta is all about the story, timing, and response to other co-actors."
Kalpen bhai! Great to hear from you, I already have an empty flat beside Jethalal’s in Gokuldham so you’re always welcome... In case, tame tamara mitra Harold ne laavo toh ‘Harold and Kumar’s Pravaas to Gokuldham’ toh huj produce karis!— Asit Kumarr Modi (@AsitKumarrModi) April 30, 2019
