Asim Riaz calls Bigg Boss 20 'flop season' in a now-deleted post. Internet reacts

Bigg Boss 20 has barely begun, but Asim Riaz has already declared it a “flop season”. The Bigg Boss 13 runner-up took a swipe at the newly launched season in a post on X, which he later deleted. His remark, however, did not disappear quietly, with social media users quickly reacting and many pushing back at his take on the reality show.Many said it had become a pattern for him to call each season a flop, while the show continued to trend every year and remains widely discussed.Here is a screenshot of his now-deleted post:Some users reminded Asim that he had finished as the runner-up on Bigg Boss 13 and said he should be careful with his words as Salman Khan hosts the show. Others said they had supported him during his season but felt he had not changed much since then. One reaction argued that it was unfair to compare television ratings from earlier seasons with the current digital era, when a large section of the audience watches the show on mobile phones. Several other comments also took aim at him personally. While some questioned why he still appeared so invested in the show, others said Bigg Boss continued to trend every year despite his criticism. A few users also mocked his recent work, including his music, and suggested that he should move on from his Bigg Boss phase.Here are some of the comments:Bigg Boss 20 premiered on September 6.
