Earlier today, we had reported about the ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’ actress Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal (who was popular for playing the role of Mrs. Roshan Singh Sodhi) had left the show after being an integral part of the show for the last 15 years. And the reason for which she had left the show (as per a report in E Times) was that the show’s producer Asit Kumarr Modi had made approaches towards her.
In a media note sent to the media personnel, it was stated by Asit Kumarr Modi that, “We will take legal action as she is trying to defame me and the show both. Since we terminated her services, she is making these baseless allegations.” The same note also carried the quotes of Harshad Joshi, Rushi Dave and Arman (from the direction team). They said, “She lacked basic discipline on the set and was not focusing on her work. We regularly had to complain to the production head about her behaviour. On her last day she was abusive in front of the whole unit and left the set without finishing her shoot”.

Also, there were Sohil Ramani and Jatin Bajaj (the show’s Project Head), who said, “She regularly misbehaved on the show with the entire team. While moving out from the shoot, she rashly drove her car out at very high speed not caring for people in her way. She even damaged the set property. We had to terminate her contract because of her bad behaviour and indiscipline during the shoot . During this incident Asit ji was in USA. She is now trying to defame us and the show by making baseless allegations. We have already filed our complaint against these baseless allegations with the concerned authorities."
