New Delhi: Actor –comedian Ali Asgar, who plays the role of ‘Dadi’ in the famous show ‘Comedy Nights with Kapil’, is in favour of getting a famous character copyrighted. Talking to a popular daily, he said that it is a good idea to get a copyright of a particular character a comedian enacts. He even expressed a desire to get the character of ‘Dadi’ patented before it gets too late. But he added that he would not prefer playing the character ‘Dadi’ on a different show as it is against moral grounds. “More than the character being related to the show, it gets associated with the channel,” said Ali. He also reasoned that to play that famous character on some any channel is not good. Now that ‘Dadi’ dearest has given the clean chit to the show’s copyright act, we would love to hear your verdict on the matter.
