what you can do is

sudo echo 'address=/example.com/127.0.0.1'  >> /etc/dnsmasq.conf

is equivalent to

*.example.com

or

*.*.*.example.com

and restart the dnsmasq service

sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart

I think this will do the trick.

  • I did it but the problem still persisted for some unknown reason. After restarting my pc it was working for reason – Al-Alamin Dec 10 '17 at 02:43

For some unknown reason even after restarting network-manager and dnsmasq the problem was not solved. But after restarting my PC it was working fine.
