MC Stan made headlines prior to his appearance on Bigg Boss 16 for all the wrong reasons. In a highly publicised breakup with his former girlfriend Auzma Shaikh, he caused quite a stir when he took to social media to share her residential address, leading to a disturbing situation where some of his fans descended on her home and threatened her. Despite this setback, MC Stan continues to make a name for himself in the rap world and keep audiences on the edge of their seats with his music and larger-than-life persona.
