Shalin Bhanot has once again found himself in the middle of a conversation, but this time, without entering the BB house. Bigg Boss 16 contestant has addressed yet another round of comparisons with new season contestants, this time shedding light on Bigg Boss 20's Qazi Touqeer. The comparisons became a topic of online discussion after Qazi's recent clash with Yung DSA reminded some viewers of Shalin's much-talked-about argument with MC Stan during his season. Addressing the growing comparisons in a video, Shalin wondered why his name keeps circulating whenever a new season of Bigg Boss starts.

Shalin Bhanot also requested fans to put an end to comparisons between him and other contestants, saying, "Har season mein mujhe kisi na kisi se compare karte hain." He shared a video on his Instagram stories, expressing frustration that his name continues to be brought up whenever a contestant displays a personality that reminds viewers of him.

He said, "Ye har baar jab Bigg Boss chalu hota hai toh main kahan se aa jata hoon? Main Bigg Boss 16 mein tha, par main har season mein kahin na kahin se jud hi jata hoon. Har ek season mein mujhe kisi na kisi se compare karte hain. ("Whenever there is a new season of Bigg Boss, how does my name come up? I was in Bigg Boss season 16. But in every season, my name is linked somehow Why does that happen I do not know.)

The actor then went on to recall how his name circulated during Bigg Boss 17 when compared with Abhishek Kumar. A season later, Shalin found himself in the limelight when host Salman Khan teased Eisha Singh during Bigg Boss 18. He went on to add, "Bigg Boss 19 mein kisi ladki ko compare kar rahe the… Phir woh beech mein Harshad (Chopda) wala bhi comparison ho raha tha. Ab ho gaya hai ye Season 20 aur phir kisi ko bol rahe hain, ‘Ye bhi Shalin hai'."

Shalini concluded by requesting fans to stop drawing parallels between him and other contestants, adding, "Main ek hi hoon." Watch!

Who is Qazi Touqeer?

Meanwhile, Qazi Touqeer has become one of the most-talked-about contestants in Bigg Boss 20. The Kashmiri singer and performer has sparked conversations with his personality and his tendency to put himself at the centre of conversations. Qazi's presence has now brought Shalin Bhanot back into the Bigg Boss discussions, with viewers recalling the latter's Season 16 behaviour and drawing comparisons between the two contestants.
