Munawar Faruqui, the stand-up comedian who has won Bigg Boss 17 is currently making headlines for all the wrong reasons.
This is not the first time that Munawar Faruqui has attracted controversies, earlier also he has made controversial statements during his shows and recently he made a remark which was not liked by the people belonging to Konkan.
During a show, Munawar said, “Konkani Log Chu**** Banate Hai,” which means “Konkanis fool others.”
The comment didn’t go well with many who slammed the comedian and recently Munawar issued an apology as he posted a video in which he said, “I have noticed that some people are getting hurt over my clip and as a comedian, I don’t want to hurt anyone. Maine jispe joke kiya tha wo logon ne bhi bahut enjoy kiya tha show. Show pe bhi sab log the, Marathi log the, Muslim log the, Hindu log the (The people I made the joke about also enjoyed the show a lot. There were people from all backgrounds at the show— Marathis, Muslims, Hindus). But when we see such things on the internet, and we notice it, we understand the issue. I want to apologise and say sorry to all. Jai Hind, Jai Maharashtra.”
