Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’s operation head Sohil Ramani has hit back at Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal for filing an FIR against him and the makers of the show
Actress Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal, took the internet by storm when she opened up about the sexual and mental harassment she had to go through at the hands of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’s makers. She went as far as to lodge an FIR against producer Asit Kumarr Modi, operation head Sohil Ramani and executive producer Jatin Bajaj. On Friday, the details of her statement were reported by various media publications. Now, in a recent media interaction, Sohil has hit back at the actress for her false accusations.
During an interview with Hindustan Times, Sohil questioned why Jennifer had reached out to Asit Modi in 2016, to take her back on the show, if she had so many problems with them. He added that nobody had forced her to do so. Talking about the message she shed sent, he told the publication, “Why did she message Asit bhai ki, ‘Main sudhar gayi hoon, sir mujhe ek mauka do’. So, I am unable to understand her issues.” ALSO READ: Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal Makes SHOCKING Claims Against TMKOC Producer Asit Kumarr Modi; Reveals He FORCED Her To Drink, Made Unwanted Advances
Ramani went on to express that he is clueless as to why she is dragging his name into the matter as he was only doing his job. He revealed that he was only following the company protocol and did whatever he had to when she left for personal reasons without informing anyone. He went on to add that if something interrupts the smooth functioning of the show, the production team will indeed speak out. He also added, “Humne toh daanta bhi nahi. Sirf pyaar se samjhaaya tha. Jab repetitive hone laga, toh humne daanta. So, all this is nothing but a publicity stunt.” ALSO READ: Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal Demands A Public APOLOGY From Asit Modi; Says, ‘If I Was Problematic Why Did They Tolerate Me For So Long?’
