All India Bakchod as a brand has established itself not only as the comedy business setting up spanking new trends but also by renovating the already present.

Keeping a notion in mind, brands too can create an identity for itself by gluing themselves to one idea or theme and thus catering to their audience, the Indian youngsters in the case of AIB.
