Jennifer Mistry had filed a sexual harassment case against Asit Modi, Sohil Ramani and Jatin Ramani last year.

When no response was received from Mumbai Police regarding the matter, the actress sought help from the Maharashtra government. After the formation of a local complaint committee, proceedings in the case were expedited and Asit Modi was convicted within four months under the Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal of Women in Workplace Act, 2013.

Angry despite decision in Jennifer's favor
Jennifer Mistry said that the decision has come in my favor with solid evidence. A fine of Rs 5 lakh was imposed on Asitkumar. They have been ordered to pay additional amount towards compensation dues and are deliberately not paying me. Which in total is around Rs 25 to 30 lakh. The decision came on 15th February 2024 but I was asked not to share it with the media. Even after 40 days I have not received the outstanding amount. Despite Asit Modi being found guilty of sexual exploitation, the three accused have not been punished.
