Munawar Faruqui

Bigg Boss 17 winner and stand-up comedian Munawar Faruqui has once again run afoul of the law with his most recent act, Hafta Vasooli. JioHotstar is now streaming the show. On the OTT platform, Munawar has garnered a lot of attention for his witty comments on political and cultural events in a newsroom-style format.

According to the most recent information, a complaint has been made against Hafta Vasooli, which has led to controversy. It claims that the program promotes profanity and offends religious feelings. Social media is ablaze with news of the complainant’s plea for a ban. In accordance with BNS Sections 196, 299, and 353 as well as the IT Act and other pertinent laws, advocate Amita Sachdeva has lodged a complaint against Hafta Vasooli and requested a formal complaint. According to the complaint, the show offends a number of religions, transgresses cultural norms, and pollutes society and young minds.

Hindu Janajagruti Samiti had earlier demanded a ban on Hafta Vasooli and they tweeted saying, “We demand an immediate ban on #HaftaVasooli airing on Jio Hotstar! In this show, @munawar uses foul language, which is unacceptable for public viewing. It sinks moral values. Streaming platforms must act responsibly! @JioHotstar @MIB_India #JioHotstar_Ban_HaftaVasooli @UdayMahurkar @SachdevaAmita”.

Sharib Hashmi and Vivian Dsena were guests on the first episode of Hafta Vasooli, which aired on February 14. Saqib Saleem joined the panel on the second episode. Munawar’s controversy coincides with the news coverage of comedian Samay Raina’s show, India’s Got Latent. “Would you rather watch your parents have sex for the rest of your life, or would you join in once and stop it forever?” was the offensive question that BeerBiceps, also known as Ranveer Allahbadia, posed to a competitor.

Munawar Faruqui:

The startling comment quickly sparked intense criticism, and Ranveer was the target of several formal complaints. On January 2, 2021, Munawar and four other stand-up comedians were taken into custody on charges of offending religious feelings. After 35 days in custody, they were released on bail.
