The tickets for the show would be available on online tickets booking platform, BookMyShow, priced at Rs. 799. The venue of the Hyderabad show is yet to be announced.
Reportedly, the show is happening, after recently, Mr. K.T. Rama Rao, the Working President of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) extended an open invitation to perform. On the 17th of December, Mr. K.T. Rama Rao said, ” “We don’t cancel shows of Munawar Faruqui and Kunal Kamra just because we are not aligned with them politically.” He further said, “I am just saying that to people listening from Bengaluru or those people who are from Bengaluru, you claim to be a cosmopolitan city, and then you end up taking comedy very seriously. We (Hyderabad) are a truly cosmopolitan city that is welcoming of all cultures, welcoming of criticism. You can come here, criticise the government… in fact, we receive a lot of brickbats from our opposition every day. We are very tolerant.”
Recently, right wing ruled states like Karnataka, Gujarat, Gurgaon, Goa canceled shows of Munawar Faruqui following threats from various Hindutva groups. Following the cancellation of shows, the comedian wrote a heartfelt message on his social media platform and bid a goodbye to comedy.
