The AIB, comedy collective, has asked its co-founders Tanmay Bhat and Gursmiran Khamba to step down in the aftermath of sexual harassment complaints against its former employer -- stand-up comic Utsav Chakraborty.


AIB took this step after it admitted and publicly apologised that despite several complaints against Chakraborty of sexual misconduct by several women, the group continued to collaborate even when Bhat received "specific, detailed allegations" in a "personal conversation".


The AIB clarified that the private conversation happened after Chakraborty had stopped being their employee, but said they made a "big mistake" and should have cut all ties immediately.
