'You can't even...': Munawar Faruqui's shocking reply to Farah Khan over Bigg Boss vs jail comparison goes VIRAL
Farah Khan apparently disappointed Munawar Faruqui when she recently sat down to talk with him for her YouTube vlog. It all began when Munawar discussed the harsh atmosphere of Bigg Boss and his time spent in prison. Farah asked the stand-up comedian, "Which was worse? "Jail or Bigg Boss?" Munawar said immediately, "You can't even compare. It is offensive to compare." Munawar Faruqui's statement appeared to shake Farah, who decided to lighten the situation by asking, "Which had more irritating people?" Munawar swiftly responded, "Bigg Boss." Munawar Faruqui was arrested in January 2021 after being accused of offending religious feelings during one of his performances in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. Police claim that the complainant heard "rehearsal jokes" that Munawar was about to make during his performance.
What happened next?
According to police, Faruqui and four other people were taken into custody when Eklavya Singh Gaur, 36, the son of local BJP MLA Malini Laxman Singh Gaur, made the complaint. Gaur and his associates had attended the performance as spectators, where they protested the remarks and caused a disturbance. Additionally, they made the event to stop.
37 days behind bars and then...
The Supreme Court later granted the comedian bail after he was imprisoned for 37 days. He revealed on social media that he has given up stand-up comedy later in November of the same year.
In a statement at the time, the comedian stated that threats of damage had forced the cancellation of 12 of his gigs in a span of two months.
On the professional front, Munawar Faruqui was most recently featured as a special guest on season two of Laughter Chefs. In addition, he recently made his acting debut.
His web series First Copy is currently available on Amazon MX Player.
