Mumbai's self-proclaimed 'drama queen' Rakhi Sawant once again captured headlines with her unfiltered reaction to the wedding of popular social media influencer Faisal Shaikh, famously known as Mr Faisu. Mr Faisu surprised his massive fanbase by announcing his Nikah to Tanya (Nikhat Fatima) in the holy city of Madinah, Saudi Arabia, on October 10, 2026. Just days after the news broke, Sawant's candid comments to the paparazzi have become the latest viral sensation.

Rakhi Sawant's Candid Reaction to Mr Faisu's Wedding
During a recent paparazzi interaction, Rakhi Sawant appeared initially unaware of Mr Faisu’s marital status. When informed that the influencer had tied the knot, Sawant reacted with visible surprise, exclaiming, “Faisu ki shaadi ho gayi?” Her immediate follow-up question quickly brought another name into the conversation: “Jannat (Zubair) ke saath hone wali thi?”
Upon learning that Faisu had reportedly married Tanya (Nikhat Fatima), Sawant, in her characteristic witty style, remarked, “Chalo Jannat toh jannat mein jayegi” (Well, Jannat will go to heaven). She then added, perhaps with a touch of playful commiseration, “Jannat ko aur Faisu mil jayega dusra” (Jannat will find another Faisu). Her humorous and unscripted remarks have since taken social media by storm, highlighting the enduring public interest in the lives of these digital stars.

The Lingering Faisu-Jannat Zubair Connection
Rakhi Sawant’s spontaneous mention of Jannat Zubair stems from years of persistent dating rumours surrounding Mr Faisu and the actress. Faisal Shaikh and Jannat Zubair Rahmani have frequently collaborated on music videos, reality shows like Khatron Ke Khiladi 12, and various social media projects. Their undeniable on-screen chemistry and close friendship led fans to affectionately dub them “Fainat,” sparking widespread speculation about a romantic relationship.

Despite the fervent fan following and continuous 'shipping,' both Faisu and Jannat have consistently maintained that their bond is strictly one of friendship. Faisu explicitly addressed these rumours in a 2022 interview with The Times of India, stating, “People assume that we are dating, but that’s not true… Offscreen, we are great friends. I am single.” He reiterated his single status in 2025, and reports also indicated that the two had unfollowed each other on Instagram, suggesting a shift in their dynamics. However, Rakhi Sawant's recent comments prove that for many, the 'Fainat' narrative remains a memorable chapter in their public personas. Is Faisal Shaikh Planning To Marry Jannat Zubair?

The influencer expressed profound gratitude, writing, “Alhamdulillah for a dream turned into reality. Nikah in the beautiful city of Madinah, with my entire family by my side. A blessing beyond words.” Following the intimate ceremony, reports suggest that Mr Faisu is planning a grand, star-studded wedding reception in Mumbai, scheduled for October 19, 2026, where friends and industry colleagues are expected to join the celebrations.
