Controversies	• #MeToo Controversy with Mahima Kukreja On 4th of October 2018, Mahima Kukreja took Tweeter to claim that Utsav has sent her pictures of his genitals without her consent. She also claimed and accused Utsav of harassing and sending pictures of his genitals to multiple other women. She also accused him of sexually harassing a minor girl as well. This led to Utsav losing his job as a writer at AIB (eventually AIB also got shutdown due to this controversy) and a lot of his work with AIB and other media houses being taken down. The Mumbai police reached out to Mahima asked them to register a complaint with the nearest police station but not a single F.I.R. was registered. A year later in 2019 Utsav came out with his side of story and claimed that all the allegations on his were false and fabricated.
