'BB 17' winner Munawar Faruqui marries in private ceremony: Report
Standup comedian and Bigg Boss 17 winner, Munawar Faruqui, has reportedly married for the second time. A source close to Faruqui confirmed the news to Times Now, stating, "Yes, Munawar is now married. He wants to keep it under wraps; hence, you would not find any pictures of the two." The hush-hush wedding was described as an intimate affair with only close friends and family present.
Reception held at ITC Grand Maratha on Sunday
The couple reportedly got married 10-12 days ago and celebrated their union with a reception at the ITC Grand Maratha, Mumbai, on Sunday. The source added, "Only the couple's near and dear were present for the ceremony. It was an extremely close-knit function." Though nothing is confirmed so far, social media chatter suggests that the bride is Mehzabeen Coatwala, who is likely a makeup artist.
Hina Khan may have attended Faruqui's wedding
Among the attendees was reportedly Faruqui's close friend, Hina Khan. On Sunday night, she shared a picture on her Instagram Story with the song "Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai" playing in the background. Khan and Faruqui have previously worked together on a music video. Faruqui has not yet reacted to the report. On Bigg Boss 17, he revealed that he separated from his wife and has custody of their young son.
He was earlier in a relationship with Nazila Sitaishi
On Bigg Boss 17, Faruqui revealed, "I have been with someone for the past two years. I got married in 2017, and in 2020, we got separated. Last year, our divorce got finalized." His ex-wife has since remarried. He was then reportedly dating model-social media influencer Nazila Sitaishi, but this new report suggests that his personal life has taken a different direction.
