Ajit Thakur, the head of Reliance Industries’ in house studio, has resigned from his position after he was accused of sexual harassment. As per the reports, Ajit Thakur has stepped down to pursue ‘legal remedies’ against his accuser.
Ajit Thakur was accused by Supriya Prasad, a TV Fiction Writing alumni of FTII.

She alleged that Ajit made inappropriate remarks and made unwelcoming advances towards her. She was called for a meeting at another executive’s place at 8pm where they were joined by a producer and an actress.

They were also consuming cocaine according to the complaint filed to SWA. She had left that midnight.
