Chetan responds...

Author Chetan Bhagat, in a series of tweets, has responded to the ‘fake’ sexual assault allegations levelled against him by author Ira Trivedi.

To defend himself, the 44-year-old shared a screenshot of a ‘self-explanatory’ mail, which, apparently Trivedi sent to him in 2013. “So who wanted to kiss whom?”, wrote Bhagat, adding, “@iratrivedi’s self-explanatory email from 2013 to me, especially last line, easily shows her claims from 2010 are false, and she knows this too. This mental harassment of me and my family has to stop. Please don’t harm a movement with #fakecharges #harassed”. 

He also shared a video of an even in which Trivedi had called Bhagat to launch her book. He wrote alongside, “Who calls their harasser as chief guest for their book launch?” — ANI
