About Munawar’s personal life
Munawar, who has maintained privacy regarding his personal life, married Mehzabeen last year. He was earlier married to Jasmine, with whom he had Mikael. His marriage to Jasmine ended in divorce, and he has sole custody of his son.
What Munawar said about his son recently
Recently, Munawar spoke about his wedding story on an episode of Farah Khan’s vlog. Munawar said that he decided to get married to Mehzabeen because of his son. In the episode, Farah said she hasn’t met anyone as secretive as Munawar, given that he got married so suddenly. Munawar responded, “The thing is the person with whom I got married, the date got fixed just a month before it. I did not know her when I went to Bigg Boss. People tend to think so much about my life, and I can’t feed into that gossip.”
“When I came out of Bigg Boss, I was busy with a lot of work. At that time, Mikael was living with my sister then. He was with me for a week and we spent a lot of time together. When he was leaving, I felt like I don’t want him to go. I felt that he needs me. That time he kept hugging me the whole time, I felt that he needs me. At that point I wondered what I could so to keep him with me. For him, I took that decision. Even her [Mehzabeen] situation was quite similar like me. She has a 10-year-old daughter. 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,” he had added.
