Salman Khan has expressed his desire to meet Pakistani reporter Chand Nawab and is making necessary arrangements, Times of India reported.
Not only has this film made the Pakistani journalist a star but now Bollywood celebs just can’t wait to meet the ‘funny man in the viral video’.
Earlier, Kabir Khan had spoken to him about the sequence and Chand was over the moon.
“No matter how grateful I am it will still be less. I am thankful to my friends that this film has given me fame. I owe it all to the love I received from Pakistanis,” he had told the director.
The reporter shared the hardships faced after the video was leaked online. “At first I was worried because I felt my career would be ruined, but my friends and family members told me to have patience and assured me that one day I will attain success,” he said.
But Kabir Khan lauded the reporter and said “He’s (Chand) now a big hero back home. I’m thrilled about that. From the video, I thought him very endearing and cute, and he is.”
Chand is not upset about the scene now, but he feels it’s still a bad example of failure.
“He thought it was an example of failure, a bad PTC and today one of the biggest Hindi films has based a character on him and it’s such a validation,” said Kabir.
