Among them was Bakhtyar Irani, who took to the comments section to criticize Navina for speaking up after so many years and for allegedly targeting someone easily. 'Sorry but why did you go home for a meeting? Meetings normally happen at offices or public places,' Bakhtyar wrote. 'Women of 1980s or women of 2025 then and now both always knew the basics. I am sorry but stop making easy targets now. When did this happen? Why didn't you come out then?' He continued, 'With all due respect to all women, it is high time we stop giving interviews after 30 days of the incident… that much time is enough to get brains and courage.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Massachusetts: These Walk In Tubs Are Cheap (See Prices) Walk In Tub Discounts Learn More Undo Navina Bole was quick to respond. She called out Bakhtyar for casting doubt on her account and urged him to watch the full podcast before forming opinions. 'It is saddening that you would question the authenticity of what I have said, considering we have been colleagues,' she wrote. 'I went assuming it was his office, which turned out to be his residence. It happened in 2006… Not that I even owe someone like you an explanation. I have brains and courage and thus spoke my truth.'

The incident has reignited conversations around the casting couch and the timing of disclosures in the entertainment industry.
