His fandom, called ‘Munawar Ki Janta’ has expressed their excitement on social media about their favourite comedian performing live in their city.

Following an open invitation from Telangana’s Information Technology Minister K.T. Rama Rao, the comedian, has announced plans to perform in Hyderabad in January. His show, however, was cancelled due to an increase in COVID-19 cases in Telangana.

It is to be mentioned that stand-up comedians Munawar Faruqui and Kunal Kamra’s shows in Bengaluru were cancelled due to threats from Hindutva organisations.
