Comedian Aziz Ansari’s new stand-up special Aziz Ansari Right Now is set to release on Netflix on 9 July. The news comes on the heels of Ansari’s international comedy tour Road to Nowhere, which began in February and included shows in Mumbai and Delhi. The special has been directed by Spike Jonze and will be the comedian’s third to premiere on the streaming platform. Check out the teaser, which features a clip from a performance in Brooklyn, New York.

In January 2018, the Master of None actor was accused of sexual assault by a 23-year-old photographer from Brooklyn. Ansari maintained that the encounter had been “consensual” and put out a statement saying he was “surprised and concerned” to learn that the woman concerned “felt uncomfortable”. He opened up about the allegations in a show in February, saying that he took some time off to process the situation and reply privately. "It made me think about a lot, and I hope I’ve become a better person," he added.
