REALITY star Munawar Faruqui has opened up
about his approach to competition, saying he
is strategic but does not manipulate people
for his own benefit. Asked if he considers yourself
naturally competitive or you have become more
strategic over the period of time, Munawar told
IANS: “No. Of course, I'm very strategic in life as
well. I'm very strategic in shows as well. But if you
see, I don't have any strategy in both the reality shows.
I've played well by talking about myself. If there's
a need for a strategy, a challenge, a task, I'll do it.”
Munawar, who has
been evicted from
the second season
of Traitors, said he
prefers to play
the game on his
own terms and is willing to take risks, whether he
is an innocent contestant or a traitor.
“But I don't
manipulate people for my own benefit. I manipulate people for their benefit as well. I'm like the agent.
If I get 80% benefit, you'll get 20 percent. I'm not
going to take any share of your 100 percent. I don't
want to harm people because of me.”
“So, that's one thing. After winning both the reality shows, when I came here, I didn't have any strategy. I just had to play the game. If I'm innocent, I'll
catch the traitor. I'll risk it. And if I'm a traitor, I
won't escape. That's it. And the situation that came
over me in both of them, I think there's no cure for
that situation,” he concluded.
Munawar also spoke about the him being evicted so soon. “For me, it was too much, I showed so
much true potential, it was overflowing, so that's
why I was thrown out.”
