Palash Sen's 'sexist' remarks at IIT Bombay sparks outrage
According to reports, during IIT Bombay's annual cultural festival on Saturday, Sen asked from boys whether there were any "good looking girls" on the campus. When students replied as "No", 48-year-old doctor-turned-singer said, "Don't worry guys, you will find the best looking women when you leave this campus. Aur woh tumhaare liye roti belenge. (And they will make rotis for you)."
When his alleged sexist remarks turned into an outrage, the Mood Indigo, IIT Bombay issued an apology on their Facebook page:
