Munawar and Mehzabeen exchanged vows on May 26, 2024, in a private ceremony in Mumbai.

This is the second marriage for both—Munawar was earlier married to Jasmine, with whom he shares a 7-year-old son, Mikael, while Mehzabeen has a daughter from her first marriage.

Speaking to Farah Khan on her YouTube channel, Munawar revealed that their wedding wasn’t planned far in advance.

. The decision, taken just a month before the ceremony, was largely influenced by his deep emotional connection to his son.

Recalling the moment that prompted the life-changing choice, Munawar shared, “When I came out of Bigg Boss, I was working a lot. Mikael was living with my sister then. He was with me for a week, and we spent a lot of time together, and when he was leaving, I felt like I don’t want him to go. I felt that he needs me. He kept hugging me the whole time."

He went on to say, “When he was leaving, I felt like he needs me, and more than him, I think I need him. In that moment, I thought, what is it that I should do so I can make him stay with me? For him, I took that decision."

Munawar added that Mehzabeen was in a similar place in her life, sharing, “She too has a 10-year-old daughter.” When Farah referred to them as a “blended family,” Munawar described it as a “puzzle.” Speaking about his proposal, he revealed, “I asked her the next day, ‘Are you okay marrying me?’ I stayed with that decision the whole night. I felt that Mikael should stay with me; I was just praying for that." (All images: Instagram/@munawar.faruqui)
