Standup comedy group All India Bakchod (AIB) cancelled their upcoming live show in Pune, stating they need time to get their act together. Their previous act created uproar over “AIB Roast” video and a police case was also registered.
The group took to Facebook to announce cancellation of the show scheduled on Saturday.
“Hi all. Regrettably, All India Bakchod is cancelling all shows of our Stage Forty-Twoo live tour that was scheduled to kick off in Pune on the 7th of March. Why?
“Because we’ve spent the last month and a half dealing with you-know-what and we now need time to write up a kick**s show that kicks the a*s of 'The Show That Must Not Be Named'. Sorry about this, but we’ll be back soon. And with a completely new show at that,” read a post on the group's page on Facebook.
AIB organised a “Roast”, an event of insult comedy. It was a charity comic event where Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar and a panel of comedians "grilled" actors Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor on their personal and professional lives. However, they faced flak from the society over its obscene comments.
The group also said refunds will be done in the next seven days.
