his father. Jethalal has a innocent crush on Babita, Krishnan Iyer's
wife and he always fights with Krishnan Iyer and Aatmaram Bhide. His
wife, Daya Jethalal Gada, is an uneducated, family oriented woman, who
has studied till class 7. She is always ready to dance the "Garba" and
people call her "Garba Queen". She is from Ahmedabad.
She is shown to be always on the phone with her mother, who finds new
and funny names for Jethalal.

she, like many Indian
housewives, think it is sin to take the husband's name. Jethalal often
scolds her and calls her "dobi", "non sense", etc. Despite this, there
is love and unity between them.
They have a son Tipendra Jethalal Gada(Tapu), who is smart but very
naughty. Tapu is the leader of society's children's brigade known as
"Tapu Sena". They make all the plans for fun parties on holidays.

but is best friend of Bhide's daughter Sonu.
