After Hindutva Outfit's Complaint, Munawar Faruqui 'Cancels' Show Due to Health

The comedian said on Friday that his Bengaluru show was cancelled due to health reasons.

The Bengaluru police has once again denied permission to stand-up comedian Munawar Faruqui's show ‘Dongri to nowhere' in the city, which was scheduled to take place on Saturday, 20 August.

The event was cancelled as the organisers had not taken permission to organise it in the city, police said.

However, the comedian said on Friday, 19 August, that his show was cancelled due to health reasons.

"Tonight’s (Friday) show has been postponed to next Friday, as I missed my flight due to health issues. I’m really sorry. Going through a test, (I) hope it is not Covid."
