Munawar Faruqui, the winner of Bigg Boss 17, has reportedly tied the knot for the second time. According to Times Now, he married makeup artist Mehzabeen Coatwala earlier this month. A source confirmed the news, stating, “Yes, Munawar is now married. He got married. He wants to keep it under wraps; hence, you would not find any pictures of the two.”
The ceremony was described as a very close-knit affair, attended only by the couple’s nearest and dearest. Reports from a social media page indicated that Munawar performed nikah with Mehzabeen Coatwala nearly two weeks ago. The newlyweds also held their wedding reception at Mumbai’s ITC Grand Maratha on Sunday.
The reception was an intimate function with a select group of friends and family. Among the attendees was Munawar’s friend, actor Hina Khan, who shared a picture from the event on her Instagram Stories, accompanied by the song “Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai.”
Munawar had previously revealed on Bigg Boss 17 that he was married to a girl chosen by his family, but the marriage did not work out. When asked about it on the show, he said, “I don’t want to talk about her. It just didn’t work out.”
In 2022, during his time on the reality show Lock Upp, host Kangana Ranaut showed Munawar a picture of him with a woman and a child and questioned him about it. Munawar responded, “I don’t want to talk about this. Not on social media, not on a platform like Lock Upp. This is not something I want to talk about… I am not hiding anything, but we have been separated for the past one and a half years. The matter is in the court, and I do not want to discuss that. It has been difficult.”
