Where the stand-up comedian says, “I was supposed to be a part of Khatron Ke Khiladi and everything was finalized, interviews happened and I was all set for the show. But then things didn’t work out and when the first episode was telecasted, the fans were surprised and shocked that they didn’t see me on the show.”
He further said, “I started to get messages from the fans asking where I was and they said even Faisu is there and you aren't! Then I received a mail from the channel and they said that on one show only one, 'Chapri' is allowed and hence I couldn’t be part of the show and I did tell them that next year shoot Khatron Ke Khiladi in Kurla and then I would take part in it.”
Well, seems like Munawar was upset that he wasn’t a part of Khatron Ke Khiladi and since Faisu was a part of the show, the stand-up comedian took an indirect dig at the social media star.
But now there is news doing the rounds that both Munawar and Faisu will be seen in Bigg Boss 16 and the makers are trying their best to get them on board.
