Munawar Faruqui is shocked following the sudden death of Poonam Pandey. On Friday, the Bigg Boss 17 winner took to his X (formerly known as Twitter) handle and expressed that he is “shocked” and “sad” after learning about the devastating news. “Shocking! can’t process the news Poonam was great human being. Sad. RIP,” he wrote.

Munawar Faruqui and Poonam Pandey participated together in Lock Upp season one. Even though Poonam did not win the show, she did expand her fan base with it. Munawar had emerged as the winner of Kangana Ranaut’s show.

Earlier today, Kangana Ranaut also reacted to Pandey’s death and wrote on her Instagram stories, “This is so sad, losing a young woman to cancer is a catastrophe. Om Shanti.” Lock Upp Jailer, Karan Kundrra also told Times Now, “Oh my god! I have no idea about this. How did it happen? It is very sad and heartbreaking news.”

Poonam Pandey passed away on Thursday, February 1. The news of her death was first revealed in a post shared on her official Instagram handle. “This morning is a tough one for us. Deeply saddened to inform you that we have lost our beloved Poonam to cervical cancer. Every living form that ever came in contact with her was met with pure love and kindness. In this time of grief, we would request for privacy while we remember her fondly for all that we shared,” the post read.

Poonam Pandey was a popular model. Her popularity skyrocketed after she had promised in a video message ahead of the 2011 Cricket World Cup final that she would strip if India won the final match. With her audacious claim, this was the first time she drew attention to herself across all social media platforms.
