In a lengthy message posted to Twitter Aditi provided her account of the events and explained how Kaneez had delayed asking for a public apology until now to find closure.

She added that contrary to what Kaneez had claimed she had not kissed her with her tongue.Aditi further mentioned that Kaneez had accepted her apology from the previous year after she had apologized to him. However Kaneez has now requested that she publicly apologize to her in light of the MeToo movement.I took part in an open mic in Mumbai's Andheri (West) in January 2016. The speaker was Kaneez Surkha. I gave Kaneez a funny peck on the lips (there was no tongue) as I approached the stage to take the microphone away from her. There was no sexual undertone to the aims. After speaking with Kaneez I realized that it had violated her personal space and still bothered her a lot. For this I sincerely apologize. In 2017 we had a long conversation about this subject. I apologized profusely for making her feel that way. She acknowledged my apologies and assured me that I hadn't meant to hurt her feelings. We talked about the pervasive sexism at AIB that she had just learned about and made a pledge to support one another in a guy’s club. 

Regarding becoming angry out of respect for her space I started to purposefully avoid any location where she or anyone from her social circles would be. As a precaution it was done.

She advised me to publicly apologize if I wanted to give her closure with the current occurrences and she gave me two days to respond.

I'm sorry Kaneez.

Surka had previously stated in the account posted on Twitter that two years ago at a comedy show I was hosting at Andheri Base in front of a 100-person audience and many comedians Aditi Mittal walked up on the stage and forcibly kissed me on the mouth out of the blue and put her tongue in my mouth while I was still on the stage and without my consent.
