“Our divorce got finalised last year. Amid this, the only best thing in my life was our son. He is five years old, and he stays with me,” he added.

Munawar further said, “I am a different person altogether in terms of work. I know he is watching me; he is my fan, he knows my songs, and he also watches my music videos. He sees everything that I post, and now he will stay with me.”

He also opened up about how his ex-wife got married and thus his son will stay with him, further adding that he has gotten very close to his son. “In the past 4-5 months, we have gotten so close that there is no limit to that. He is so smart,” he said.

Notably, this is not the first time that the comedian has spoken about his son. Earlier, while speaking to Neil Bhatt, Munawar was seen getting emotional about his son. “After being away for a long time, my son came to me a few months ago. I have connected with him a lot, and now I am missing him very much,” he had said back then.
