It's pathetic how it's been normalised - even Sallu uses it, but he favours Eijaz apparently . It began with Nishant - and it began because they wanted to highlight Eijaz's so-called "budhapa". Him, Rahul, Jasmine, Rubina - they've all age-shamed him. The only person who's ever used it for Eijaz without the old angle, and purely out of affection - is Nikki.
I don't even trust this wench Nikki...
