About AIB & AIB #MeToo Controversy:

Stand-up comedian and popular YouTuber Utsav Chakraborty, who works as a freelancer with the comedy group All India Bakchod, has been accused of sending women lewd messages and photos via social messaging apps.

The allegations against Utsav blew up when a Twitter user named Mahima Kukreja put up a Twitter post accusing the comedian of sending her an unsolicited picture of his genitalia and then pleading with her not to make his act public as it would "ruin" his career.

Most of the comedians within his circle, including Kunal Kamra and Tanmay Bhat, knew about his habit of harassing underage girls but opted to keep quiet and work with him.

On 8 October 2018, Gursimran Khamba provided clarification on some sexual harassment allegations reported by an unknown girl who claimed Khamba had sexually assaulted her. Khamba, on the other hand, denied the allegation, claiming that the relationship was consensual.

On 16 October 2018, Yash Raj Films (YRF) terminated the services of Ashish Patil, who was their Vice-President of Brand Partnerships and Talent Management, and Business and Creative Head for Y Films, after he was accused of forcibly kissing and making advances on an anonymous aspiring actress.

The anonymous woman texted her #MeToo story to an activist who tweeted screenshots with the woman's permission.

In May 2019, the group announced that they had to let go of their entire team in the wake of the controversy and that their YouTube channel would remain inactive indefinitely. While Bhat's suspension was lifted, he was barred from holding the position of CEO and Khamba was let go off. Joshi and Shakya the remaining two members too would pursue independent careers.

In October 2018, comedienne Kaneez Surka accused Aditi Mittal, who had appeared on the All India Bakchod Knockout of 'forcefully kissing her on her mouth without consent' and that she was triggered by Mittal championing the cause of the movement.
