Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, a popular sitcom that garnered immense popularity among viewers, has been making negative headlines for several weeks now. Allegations were raised against the show's producer, Asit Kumar Modi, by Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal and Monika Bhadoriya. Also, an FIR was registered against Modi, operations head of the show Sohail Ramani and executive producer Jatin Bajaj over sexual assault. He has now reacted to it.
Asit Kumarr Modi issued a statement and mentioned that the case is being probed. "We deny all allegations and have given our statement to the police. We are not aware if FIR is registered. In any case, the matter is under investigation; hence no further comments," his statement read. It all started after Jennifer, who used to play the role of Mrs Roshan Sodhi in TMKOC, accused the makers of sexual harassment. A case has been registered against all three TMKOC makers under sections 354 and 509 of the IPC.
