National, 12th November: Time for another action-packed battle for survival in the latest episode of Star vs Food Survival Season 2. This week, celebrated chef Ranveer Brar teams up with comedian and entertainer Munawar Faruqui in the dense jungles of Meghalaya.

Airing on discovery+ and Discovery Channel on November 11, this episode offers a captivating blend of survival, courage, and deep personal reflection as Munawar brings his unique whimsy and wit to the wilderness.

The episode begins with Munawar and Ranveer navigating a rocky crevice in search of their survival kit. As hunger sets in, Ranveer encourages Munawar to try silkworms. An initially hesitant Munawar, eventually caves in, illustrating the stakes for survival. Later, the pair finds refuge in a large cave, where they set up torches and a fire to protect themselves from wild animals through the night.

Prior to Munawar, Star Vs Food Survival Season 2 has seen Kartik Aaryan and Shikhar Dhawan brave intense survival challenges across India’s raw, untamed landscapes, spanning from the rugged Western Ghats to the arid landscapes of Himachal and the gargantuan heights of the Himalayas. With an aim to take stars and the viewers on a journey beyond the kitchen into the heart of the jungle, the four-part series puts them right in front of their worst fears.

Reflecting on the experience, Munawar Faruqui shares, I never imagined I’d find myself in a jungle eating silkworms or sleeping in a cave. But this journey was more than just survival—it was about letting go of fear and embracing the unknown. It reminded me how powerful it can be to stay calm and keep going, no matter what’s around you.”

Ranveer and Munawar’s journey turned introspective as the wilderness prompted them to reflect deeply on life. While brewing bay leaf and lemongrass infused tea, Munawar discussed the profound shifts in his perspective, finding new sides to himself, especially as a father. He also recalled his time in jail and how he’d prefer countless nights in the jungle over a single night in confinement, explaining that the jungle nights, despite their challenges, bring a rare sense of freedom and hope. 

Ranveer Brar highlights the power of unexpected challenges, saying, “Every survival journey has its twists, and Munawar truly brought his own magic to this one. Seeing him face the jungle and open up about his life was inspiring. Just like our plan to spend the night in the cave, sometimes life doesn’t go as planned, but somehow, it all works out in the end.”
