Reception
In February, 2015, the show was subject to widespread public criticism and certain right-wing political leaders filled an FIR against the group, the participants and certain audience members, under multiple sections of the Indian Penal Code.[2] No progress or arrests were made in any of the cases. Some dissenters protested outside AIB's office displaying their displeasure at the show's content. AIB offered apologies to those who were aggrieved and issued a two page press-release explaining their decision to remove the video from their channel.[3][4][5]
First things first; no one person or force forced us to take this video down. This is not something that's happening because of a 3 am phone call or morcha (protest) at our front door or a gunman on a grassy knoll. Under the circumstances, this is us being pragmatic. Allow us to explain.
