"It was all confirmed on email but a few hours back, they said they had made a mistake, there was a double booking and they wouldn't be able to host me today. Without even asking me, they changed the date to July 1 because on that day no student would be there and there's no point doing an event," he said.

In the same video message, Agnihotri also said that he was not allowed to record the session at Cambridge University that had happened on May 30.
