Actor Ali Asgar, known for his iconic 'Dadi' character in Comedy Nights with Kapil, revealed that he had to stop playing female characters on-screen after his kids were bullied at school.

Ali, who has two children with his wife, Siddika Asgar, said that his kids were bullied because of his female characters on the show.

He shared a personal anecdote, saying, 'I hope no one wrote on my son's hand, 'My father is a female'.'

Ali also expressed his frustration with being stuck in a phase of his career where he was only playing female characters, saying, 'I did not want to do the same thing over and over again but it was not in my hands.'

He revealed that he had to exit Kapil's popular comedy show, The Kapil Sharma Show, in 2017 due to 'creative differences.'
