One of the fans expressed disappointment in joining Kangana’s reality show and one should not use social media to support such so-called victims.
One fan said, “Munawar Faruqui was jailed for a joke he didn’t crack. And now doing a show with Kangana Ranaut, he is playing a cruel joke on us. And on himself.”
Another fan targeted him for collaborating with a casteist piece of shit who 24X7 spits venom against other religions & castes.
Meanwhile, Munawar Faruqui responded to criticism over appearing in the reality show, Lock Upp.
He said, “If someone believes in ideologies, they would also believe that we live in a democratic country. We all have the freedom of speech and to put across our beliefs. If one expects to be heard and their opinions respected, they too would have to do the same. It’s going to be a give and take situation.”
Last year, Faruqui was forced to stop his performance at a café in Indore by Hindu right-wing nationalists, who accused him of insulting Hindu gods during the rehearsals of his show. He was then handed over to the police with four others. He spent 37 days under police custody.
