New Delhi: Comedian Munawar Faruqui, who has been roped in for reality show "Lock Upp", has shown his daring side as seen in one of the promos shared by ALTBalaji and MX Player.



In the promo, host Kangana Ranaut was shown asking him (in Hindi): "Munawar, why did you come here? Not to mess with me, right?" She then laughs and adds: "Just kidding. We can also even tell jokes."

Munawar, laughs in turn, as he replies: "Only thing, this was not funny."

Pointing towards Kangana, he says: "I don't have to change anything with comedy. An artiste can't bring any revolution till today."

At this, Kangana, looking a bit upset, says: "What did you say? An artiste can't bring any revolution... If there is a death sentence, he would have been given (it)."

Munawar then answers: "Don't threaten me."

Recently, many of Munawar's fans have criticised him for participating in Kangana's reality show, and also took to social media to clarify his point.

Taking to his Instagram, Munawar shared a post with the caption, "Will never let u down."

The post reads as, "Request to friends, fans and followers...If you see people giving their opinion on something I'm doing, Don't argue or abuse them. Put your words in right way and leave. Don't engage!

They have right to do that. As I feel few are hurt, disappointed but at the end let's not make internet about arguments and hate...let them do their job (criticism), and let me do my job! (Entertainment). 

My job is to entertain you people and I will try my best to do that 24*7 on this show."

In 2017, Munawar started his journey as a comedian. In 2018, he became the winner of Comic Kaun 4.0 and Open Mic at Synergy Fest.

In 2021, he was arrested by the police in Madhya Pradesh's Indore in a case for allegedly hurting religious sentiments and was in jail for almost a month.



"Lock Upp" will be streaming at 10 p.m. on Sunday on ALTBalaji and MX Player.
