Bigg Boss 17: Munawar Faruqui Beats Mannara Chopra In Captain Race

Bigg Boss 17 has gained popularity among viewers for its concept and the diverse group of contenders this year. Among others, Munawar Faruqui is one of the most talked-about contenders this season and is considered a fan favourite. The audience was impressed to see his strategy, but time and again he has also come under the scanner for his friendship with Mannara Chopra. As per the latest update, Munawar has been selected as the first captain in the Bigg Boss house.

The Bigg Boss housemates faced their first captaincy task this season. The assignment introduced a vulture into the house, and when the vulture’s sound was heard; three candidates must immediately approach it and feed it meat. The task was to be completed in rounds, and those who placed the meat first were given the opportunity to dismiss others from the captaincy competition. According to reports on The Khabri’s X account, the two remaining contenders were Munawar Faruqui and Mannara Chopra, with the former winning the captaincy task.

While the news spread on social media, Munawar’s fans are rejoicing and congratulating the stand-up comedian. A user said, “MUNWAR DESERVES IT, hero of our hearts,” while another stated, “First captain of the house, mastermind for a reason.”

Recently, the comedian made some stunning revelations regarding his personal life on the show. He revealed to Aishwarya Sharma, Mannara Chopra, and Arun Mashettey that his mother committed suicide when he was 14 years old. Munawar stated that after his mother died, he relocated to Mumbai with his father and started a job at a utensil store. His family got him married, and he had a son within a year.

Moreover, talking about his former wife, Munawar shared that he didn’t even know that his wife got married again. She stated, “When I called Mikhail (His son) home after 10-15 days, I came to know that she had already gotten married. I called Mikhail’s nana to ask whether the news was true. I understood that Mikhail was here with me, and she got married and left. I came to know that she went to another city.” Further, when Aishwarya questioned him if his son was close to his mother, he mentioned, “They both were not attached.” Munawar expressed that anger spoils relationships, and his home was no exception.
