Before entering the show, Munawwar told the media that the lock-up would push him out of his comfort zone. However, when we asked him what did he do to pick a show that could spark controversy, he replied, “First of all, I don’t think there is anything wrong in being controversial. It only means that people haven’t heard your side of the story, or that you may have been taken out of context. I never wanted to be a part of controversies. I never went and asked the media to make some ruckus (uproar) with my statement. I immediately removed the part of my video that offended people. It was the public that drove it for almost a year and made it news. I never wanted to be controversial, he made me one.’
