Speaking exclusively to IANS, Kunal was asked whether comparisons with Salman, who has been synonymous with the reality show niche for over a decade, were on his mind. Responding candidly, the actor said, “I didn’t think about all that. People have been doing it way before I have been doing it. And they are doing it very well.” He further explained that he has no intention of imitating anyone’s style or deliberately trying to stand apart. “Your conditioning is such that maybe this is how it happens because you have never seen it. So I am neither trying to emulate anyone, nor am I trying to be different from anyone.” He called the experience completely new for him, and admitted that he himself doesn’t know what kind of host he will eventually turn out …

But I don’t think all this is bad advice.” ‘Was home for a year’ Further talking about the lull …

Meet the ‘Tree Killer’ That Slowly Takes Over Its Host

Published by Parlour News

3 min readNew DelhiJun 30, 2026 11:00 PM IST Imagine a plant that doesn’t just grow beside a tree, but climbs onto it, wraps around it, and quietly takes over its entire life. No noise, no sudden collapse. Just a slow, silent takeover that ends with the host tree disappearing completely. It sounds dramatic, almost villain-like.

A quiet invasion from above Strangler figs begin life in the most unexpected way. Their seeds are dropped by birds or other animals onto tree branches, where they begin growing high in the canopy. At first, they behave like harmless hitchhikers, using the host tree only for support. But as they grow, they send roots down toward the forest floor. Once these roots reach the soil, the real transformation begins. The plant rapidly strengthens, thickens to produce trunk-like structures spreading both upward and downward at …
