Munawar was one of the most popular contestants of the 17th season, capturing attention from the moment he entered the Bigg Boss house. However, his journey faced challenges, especially when Ayesha Khan made serious allegations against him.
Throughout the show, Munawar encountered controversies, including allegations of two-timing with his ex-girlfriend Nazila Sitaishi. Despite these hurdles, he won the hearts of Bigg Boss fans and emerged as the champion of the reality show.
