Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal`s reaction to the FIR filed against the TMKOC makers
In an interview with a leading media portal, the TV actress revealed information about the day the complaint was filed. She also mentioned how cooperative the police were with her.
"I was called to the police station yesterday (Monday, June 19) evening. I reached there at 7:30 p.m. and was there till 12:30 a.m., and finally, the FIR has been registered. I`ve been told by the cops that they will call me whenever they need any information. The law will take its course; whatever I could do, I have done. Mainly, the FIR has been registered because it was stuck for the past many days, and that`s a huge thing," said Jennifer.

She was the first to reveal the inappropriate behavior of Asit, Sohail, and Jatin. The show has been running for over 14 years now, but the makers lack basic respect for the actors, says Jennifer.

She further opened up about how she feels knowing that some action has been initiated against the makers. She said she was relieved but not happy.
"I am at least relieved that action has been taken now, but I am still not happy in that way because this is not something that I wanted. I did not want this, but God and the universe are letting it happen, which means it had to happen. Let`s see, I am still praying for the highest good for everyone in the world and that everything happens more nicely. I don`t want anyone to get any kind of punishment; whatever it is, it just happens nicely," said the actress.
She further added, "Even now, if I get a statement from their side saying, `Humne jo bhi kiya, bhool-chook maaf," (we apologize for whatever has been done intentionally or unintentionally), that is also enough. Why unnecessarily drag out the situation? I don`t know what God has written for them."
TMKOC actors support Jennifer
After Jennifer Mistry, several other actors from the Taarak Mehta Ka Oolta Chashmah cast came out to her support. Shailesh Lodha, Monika Bhadoriya, Priya Ahuja, and former director Malav Rajda opened and supported the actress.
