Fans especially from Pakistan appreciated Nawazuddin’s statements.

One criticised: “Meanwhile people like Yasir Hussain are degrading our dramas.”
Nawazuddin Siddiqui is a well-known Bollywood actor who achieved success through hard work and dedication.
He is now recognised as one of the top performers in India and is admired in both India and Pakistan.
His role as reporter Chand Nawab in the film Bajrangi Bhaijaan was loved by people on both sides of the border.
The star shared insights about his journey and personal preferences.
When Nawazuddin prepared for a crucial scene in the movie, he drew inspiration from the actual Chand Nawab.
To nail the character’s essence, he practised the lines an incredible hundred times, displaying his commitment to authenticity.
During the shoot, the actor had the chance to meet Chand Nawab and was genuinely impressed by the reporter’s innocence.
He aimed to reflect this quality in his on-screen portrayal, emphasising the connection he sought to establish with the character.
He recalled the need to replicate the entire scene while shooting at a railway station in Rajasthan.
It was available for only one day due to limited work in that location.
Given the technical challenges of a moving train, he had to emulate and conclude Chand Nawab’s character during its motion.
