Chand Nawab Praises His Parody in Bajrangi Bhaijaan

Chand Nawab, the journalist who once became a butt of jokes after his reporting video went viral, is now happy how Nawazuddin Siddiqui essayed his character in Bajrangi Bhaijaan. He said, “I want to thank (director) Kabir Khan, Salman Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui for the way they portrayed me and Pakistan in the film. Nawazuddin has done a good role”.

He shared, “I had once gone to Iran some years ago and I met some Indian journalists there. At the time, I told them that the YouTube video had spoiled my reputation not just in Pakistan but also in India. People would point to that video and say, ‘Look, this is the quality of Pakistani television journalism”.

He further thanked the film and said that he is receiving offers to work in Pakistani TV commercials. Nawab said, “Others have been coming to my home with cakes and sweets. My colleagues and bosses have expressed their appreciation”. He further said that he wanted his wife, who passed away last year, to watch the film. He said, “She was a doctor and she inspired me a lot. She would always stand by me”.
