As per reports, the incident took place in August over approval of Joshi's leaves from the shoot of the show.
According to a report in News18, Joshi had asked for a few days off from the shoot in August, but Modi avoided the conversation, and this did not go down well with the actor. Later, when Modi visited the sets of TMKOC, Joshi waited to speak to him, but he ignored him and went straight to other actors.
TMKOC has been in news in the past couple of years for all wrong reasons. Several actors, who had been associated with the show since its inception, such as Shailesh Lodha and Jennifer Mistry, quit the sitcom citing harassments in the hands of the Modi and the other executive producers of TMKOC. Mistry had even accused Modi of making sexual advances towards her during their outdoor shoots. Palak Sindhwani had also accused the makers of "inhuman treatment" during the shoot.
