Just wanna apologize for supporting/defending @Wootsaw in the past. I had confronted him about an incident and he convinced me that it was a misunderstanding and i believed him. I dismissed other stories are hearsays instead of being more alert.

What’s up with this Utsav? Your behaviour has been consistently misogynist for a while and you keep pretending to be woke like your boyfriends at AIB who keep you employed as well. Women don’t feel safe around you. What are you doing about this?

What the actual fuck @Wootsaw? What makes people think you will get away with this behaviour? But more importantly why do you people continue to behave this way? https://t.co/9KmF1nWvMP

Shameful, creepy, ugly behavior by a fellow comic (Utsav/@Wootsaw). More stories coming out, all because @AGirlOfHerWords decided to speak out. Indian Comedy, like every other industry, needs a #TimesUp. https://t.co/WpVGdQlvkZ

I called him out on the group immediately. This is July 2016. I said I won’t tell anyone yet. He called me immediately and said that she<insert victim blaming monologue of 15 mins with occasional yelling>. We kicked him out of the group and also distanced ourselves from him. pic.twitter.com/6dENRyz3CR

Mumbai Police has already asked the detail to register FIR and start the inquiry on the priority basic.
It’s a shame how this count is increasing every day. Women’s are speaking out. All started with Tanushree Dutta, AIB came, Utsav Chakraborty, Anurag Verma from HuffPost India, also Jeeveshu Ahluwalia. Rajat Kapoor, Alok Nath, Gaurang Doshi from Bollywood with Vairamuthu the Tamil lyricist as well. MJ Akbar is also accused by several women’s. It’s actually difficult to recall all the names as these are coming thick and fast.
