His message along with the screenshot read- "So who wanted to kiss whom? ’s self-explanatory email from 2013 to me, esp 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 ".

In the ongoing #MeToo movement, writer Ira Trivedi, on October 13, had detailed her experience of being sexually harassed by Chetan Bhagat and Suhel Seth. Ira Trivedi, had come ahead with her story alleging Author Chetan Bhagat as well as Suhel Seth for allegedly having sexually assaulted and harassed her years ago. After sharing Whatsapp screenshots of Chetan's attempts to woo her, the writer in her long article published by Outlook had gone on to allege that Bhagat, 10 years ago at Jaipur Literature Festival tried to force himself upon her. Ira said "And the reality is that they did not behave appropriately, this is no way to behave with another woman, especially a much younger woman and especially when one of the men is married, one of them is 25 years older. And I also thought that it was my responsibility to come up and speak up. You know, because when women don't speak up with their stories, it's very difficult."
