Music composer Anu Malik, who has been accused of sexual harassment by several women, including singers Sona Mohapatra, Neha Bhasin and Shweta Pandit, has offered to step down as a judge of a reality show on Sony TV, channel sources said on Thursday.

“Thank you to all the women & men & the media of India who supported our campaign #MoveOutMalik. A repeat offender like Anu Malik on national tv triggered a lot of trauma, pain & stress in many of our lives. I have been ill for a while & I hope to sleep well tonight,” the singer wrote on Twitter.

The development comes a week after the music director denied the allegations, saying he was being “cornered” for something he did not do and may take legal action.

In a statement posted on social media, Malik called the claims “false and unverified”, adding they had affected his “only source of livelihood”.Malik was first accused of misconduct last year during the #MeToo wave and was briefly dropped from the singing reality show.
