"I don't know what I am anymore," states comedian Utsav Chakraborty's Twitter bio. It's ironic, because neither fans nor the comedy fraternity feel like they know who he is anymore, with multiple allegations of sexual harassment surfacing against him, including accusations that he sent sexually explicit messages to minors.

Also ironic was how this came to light after Chakraborty called out a group of Indian men for harassing women aboard an Australian cruise ship. "Saw this on my TL. Interesting for you to comment on how Indian men harass women [sic]," said a YouTuber on Twitter yesterday, and continued the thread by asking Chakraborty, "Did they send unsolicited dick pics, or that's safely only your territory? Or like cry after saying you'll ruin their career if you tell others? Or will they also blame that on the girls?"
