In the serial, the main lead, Jethalal Champaklal Gada played by the actor Dilip Joshi, who is a Gujarati character is fond of these two delicacies and many times jalebi and fafda have become important plot points in some of the episodes of the 13-year old long-running show.

The 23-year old pacer from Saurashtra made his debut in the IPL in May this year and was proving to be one of the emerging stars of the 14th edition impressing one and all with his control and temperament.
