In a statement, Munawar discussed the program and said, “Over the years, my fans have always stood by me and supported me in everything I have done. Hence, I wanted to present them with a special gift this year by announcing this project where they’ll witness a new side of me. I’m eager to see everyone’s response to it.”

The “First Copy,” which was written and directed by Farhan P. Zamma and co-produced by Kurji Productions and Salt Media, will be available soon.

Munawar stole the show earlier this year when he competed on “Bigg Boss 17.”
In the final, Munawar emerged victorious over actor Abhishek Kumar.

Munawar expressed his confidence in his victory in an interview with ANI.

“My heart was beating a lot but somewhere it was saying that I would be the winner. My fans always supported me and whenever I was left behind, they pulled me by holding my hand, so I am very grateful.”

Shortly after winning, the stand-up comedian posted a picture of himself and host Salman Khan on social media with the remark, “Bohot Bohot shukriya janta aapke pyaar aur support ke liye aakhir kar trophy Dongri aa hi gayi (Thank you my fans for all the love and support. Finally the trophy is here). Special thanks to Bade Bhai @beingsalmankhan sir for all your guidance. Saari ‘Munawar ki janta aur Munawar ke warrior’ ka dil se shukriya (thanks to all of my fans from the bottom of my heart).

Munawar was one of the most well-liked in the Big Boss Season 17.

But his plan quickly backfired, and he encountered several difficulties, chief among them being Ayesha Khan’s entry into the program and her grave accusations against him. He was accused by Ayesha of lying to her, cheating on her, and making a marriage proposal to a different female. Though his performance plummeted, he was still able to stand tall.

Standup comic Munawar Faruqui booked after raid at Mumbai hookah bar

March 27, 2024, 11:33 am

Late on Tuesday night, the Mumbai police detained and later released stand-up comedian and winner of Bigg Boss 17, Munawar Faruqui, along with 14 others, on allegations of consuming tobacco-based hookah at a hookah bar in South Mumbai, officials confirmed.

According to Mumbai Police sources, a team conducted a raid at the Sabalan hookah bar and found 14 individuals, including Faruqui, consuming hookah with tobacco. Upon confirming the presence of tobacco, an offence was registered under the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act at the local MRA Marg police station. As it was a bailable offence, the accused were released with notice.

The raid was prompted by a tip-off received by the police, indicating that patrons were smoking tobacco-based hookahs disguised as herbal ones. Faruqui and 13 others have been charged under the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act (COTPA), along with IPC sections 285 and 336.

During the raid, the police confiscated Rs 4,400 in cash and nine hookah pots valued at Rs 13,500. Further investigations are ongoing.

Munawar Faruqui gained prominence during his stint on the 17th season of the Colors show Bigg Boss. However, in 2021, he made headlines when he was arrested in Indore following a complaint from a BJP MLA’s son for allegedly making jokes about Hindu deities and Union Home Minister Amit Shah. His arrest sparked widespread criticism, and he was released on bail after intervention by the Supreme Court.

Mumbai Police Files FIR against Munawar Faruqui fan for illegal drone usage

January 31, 2024, 3:34 pm

FIR registered against a drone operator for illegally using a drone that captured Munawar Faruqui’s celebration with fans in Mumbai’s Dongri.

A First Information Report (FIR) has been registered against a drone camera operator who was using it to capture Faruqui’s Bigg Boss 17 victory celebration as per a report published in Free Press Journal, said Hindustan Times.

A huge crowd was present in Dongri to celebrate his win. He had also bought his trophy as he stood on the sunroof of his car.

According to the same report, constable Nitin Shinde, who was patrolling with PSI Tausif Mulla, first spotted Munawar Faruqui’s fan, identified as Arbaaz Yusuf Khan (26). After confronting the drone operator, who lacked authorization to use the drone during the celebration in Dongri, Mumbai, the police reportedly reported the incident to the police station. Additionally, it is said that the cops seized the drone camera.

According to reports, a case has been filed for violating the Mumbai Police Commissioner’s directives, which prohibit using drones without authorization. Previously, with the public’s safety in mind, the police had banned flying objects, including drone cameras. The only exceptions are when police use drones for aerial surveillance purposes or when the deputy commissioner of police specifically authorizes it in writing.

The 17th season of Bigg Boss saw the victory of comedian Munawar Faruqui. Thousands of his followers greeted him warmly at Dongri in Mumbai. He was spotted in a video opening his car’s sunroof and just standing there. A sea of people congregated around his vehicle. He was spotted hoisting his Bigg Boss trophy, which he briefly revealed.

The reality show winner also gestured at them to cheer for him. His fans shouted, tried to shake his hands, click pictures and greet him. Munawar greeted them with folded hands and thanked them for their support.

Earlier, Munawar had shared a picture with the Bigg Boss 17 host Salman Khan. His post read , “Bohot bohot shukriya janta. Aapke pyaar aur support ke liye aakhir kar trophy Dongri aa hi gayi (A lot of thanks, people. With your love and support, the trophy finally reached Dongri).” He also added, “Special thanks to bade Bhai (big brother) @beingsalmankhan sir for all your guidance… We have done it.”

While addressing the media, after he was announced as the winner of the show, he said, “…I am very happy and thankful. I am fortunate to have such a fan following…I always remember my parents during the sad and happy times…”

Munawar Faruqui was declared the winner of the 17th season of Bigg Boss. He defeated co-contestant Abhishek Kumar to win the finale.

Faruqui took home a coveted trophy and cash prize of Rs 50 lakh.

Munawar was one of the most popular contestants of the 17th season of the Colors show. He hogged the limelight ever since he entered the Bigg Boss house, courtesy of his shayaris.

However, his game backfired soon and he faced several hurdles mainly when Ayesha Khan entered the show making some serious allegations against him.

Ayesha blamed him for cheating on her, making false promises, and proposing to another girl for marriage. His game hit rock bottom but he managed to stand tall.

Before ‘Bigg Boss 17’, Munawar gained popularity with his winning stint in the ‘Lock Upp’ reality show.

January 24, 2024, 3:42 pm

The most recent Bigg Boss 17 contestant to be eliminated is Vicky Jain. He was kicked off Bigg Boss just in time for this weekend’s grand finale, having spent 100 days in the house. Before the finale, this was the last eviction. Actress Ankita Lokhande, Vicky’s wife, was seen sobbing as he left the house. Throughout their turbulent journey together on the show, Vicky and Ankita have frequently clashed but have also relied on one another for support. Bigg Boss asked Ankita, Vicky, and Arun Mashettey to open chits of paper during last night’s episode to determine which of them had advanced to the finale. Vicky found out that his chit said “Evicted” when he opened it.

Sushant Singh Rajput’s Sister Expresses Love for Ankita Lokhande Amidst Controversy

January 17, 2024, 12:29 pm

Shweta Singh Kirti, Sushant Singh Rajput’s sister, expressed love and admiration for Ankita Lokhande, the late actor’s Pavitra Rishta co-star and former girlfriend. Shweta’s Instagram story read, “We love you, Anki!

This gesture from Shweta Singh Kirti comes in response to statements made by Ankita Lokhande’s mother-in-law, Ranjana Jain, who alleged in an interview that Ankita frequently mentions Sushant Singh Rajput on the show Bigg Boss 17 to “gain sympathy.” Shweta’s expression of love for Ankita reflects a desire to maintain a positive and supportive connection with Sushant’s past associations.

Addressing the ongoing discussions, Ankita Lokhande’s mother, Vandana Lokhande, emphasized that Ankita continues to maintain contact with Sushant’s family. She stated, “Ankita and Sushant lived together for seven years in this house with me. She truly loved him. Ankita never talked about Sushant on her own. One time Munawar asked her about him, and then Abhishek asked her. And she has always said good things about Sushant. I am very proud of that. She talks with Shweta; Rani Di calls her, and she even talks to his father.”

Ankita Lokhande’s relationship with Sushant Singh Rajput garnered public attention during their time together on the television series Pavitra Rishta. The actor was found dead at his Mumbai apartment on June 14, 2020, leaving behind a void in the entertainment industry.

Bigg Boss 17’s evicted contestant Aishwarya Sharma Bhatt reveals the real story behind Vicky Jain and Ankita Lokhande slap controversy

December 25, 2023, 12:48 pm

After another round of eviction, it was Aishwarya Sharma Bhatt’s turn to leave the Bigg Boss 17 house. She starred in Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin. After Aishwarya disobeyed the rules of the Bigg Boss house, which was named by current captain Isha Malviya, the former Khatron Ke Khiladi contestant was eliminated from the Salman Khan-hosted reality show. Aishwarya spoke briefly with Indian Express following her departure from Bigg Boss 17, discussing her eviction, her and husband Neil Bhatt’s rivalry with Vicky Jain and Ankita Lokhande, and the infamous slap controversy involving Vicky and Ankita.

“I wanted to win the trophy, but I got eliminated for breaking rules, so I’m very disappointed,” Aishwarya said after her eviction. Isha made a really unjust decision. I was hoping that she wouldn’t take my name because she has always been very clear about where she stands. I’ve never broken any rules; perhaps she chose to evict me because I was a formidable rival. She’s simply become extremely overconfident. She said, “It was an old friendship that turned into rivalry inside the Bigg Boss house,” addressing the rival with Vicky-Ankita. We were informed that our altercation with Vicky-Ankita was solely intended for the cameras. However, there was disagreement. Vicky aspires to lead at all times.

Aishwarya also discussed the marriage between Vicky and Ankita as well as the recent, well-publicized slap controversy, in which it was claimed that Vicky reached up to strike his wife during a fight. “I’m not sure exactly what transpired, but Neil and Abhsihek were discussing it. “Vicky really did something like this, Abhishek confirmed with Anurag,” the woman remarked. “Even I was very shocked, but it is between them.” Although it was completely incorrect, I don’t want to address it further. They are limited to discussing the relationships of others. They seem to think marriage is a joke.

A few of the competitors started fighting as they hurried to change their beds.

In the “Dil” room, Soniya Bansal lost her cool and even called Abhishek “gawar” as he hurried to take her bed. It was later discovered that Abhishek wanted to sleep in Mannara Chopra’s bed and be close to Isha in her room. She criticized him for wanting to share a bed with his ex-girlfriend despite their claims that they don’t want to be together after this did not sit well with the latter.
