12th January 2024, Mumbai: In a recent episode of Bigg Boss 17, Ayesha Khan made startling revelations against Munawar Faruqui, delving into his personal life, from allegations of two-timing to scrutinizing his behavioral patterns. The episode turned into a courtroom drama, with contestants gathering around the rapper-comedian to seek explanations, sparking a wave of criticism.
Shabana Shaikh and Altaf Shaikh Speak Out
Munawar Faruqui’s cousin Shabana Shaikh and her husband Altaf Shaikh, who played a significant role in Munawar’s life since he was 13, expressed their dismay over the behavior of other housemates. Shabana highlighted the hurtful nature of the contestants making it appear like a courtroom spectacle and bombarding Faruqui with questions. Altaf bluntly questioned the interference, stating, “Who the hell are you? It is a matter between the two, and they’ll solve it among themselves. This really hurt us a lot.”
Applauds for Abhishek Kumar and Mannara Chopra
While expressing their discontent with the way housemates confronted Munawar Faruqui, Shabana and Altaf extended their gratitude to Abhishek Kumar and Mannara Chopra for standing by his side. Shabana acknowledged Ankita Lokhande’s emotional response, recognizing it as a common human reaction. She remarked, “This is human nature; people feel the person expressing their pain is right. But when she heard Munawar’s explanation, she also had tears in her eyes.”
A Plea to Makers and Housemates
Munawar Faruqui’s family, in a later statement, urged fans to continue their unwavering support and expressed gratitude for the solidarity they’ve received thus far. They pleaded with the show’s makers and other housemates to refrain from targeting Munawar and allow the personal matters to be resolved privately.
