Pak journalist Chand Nawab’s video is up for auction as an NFT #IndiaNEWS #World
If you have watched ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’, you must know the character Chand Nawab and his hilarious reporting skills. During the introduction of the character portrayed by Nawazuddin Siddiqui, we see a hilarious scene where Chand Nawab has a tough time reporting from a railway station during Eid.
Well, for the unversed, the scene is a complete replication of an original reporting clip of the Pakistani journalist Chand Nawab who reports from a railway station in Karachi but is disturbed until the end by people passing by.
“Karachi se log apnon mein Eid manane ke liye androoni mulk jaa rahe hain. Cameraman Kamil Yusuf ke saath, Chand Nawab, Indus News, Karachi(sic),� he reports in a mundane tone which leaves many in splits.
Watch:

Well, little did Chand Nawab know that his simple coverage of the Eid celebrations in Karachi over 12 years ago will make him famous. Now, the clip has been put up for auction as an NFT (Non-Fungible Token) on a website called ‘Foundation.App’. The clip’s minimum bid is at 20 Ethereum Tokens that amounts close to Rs 46 lakh.
The description said, “I’m Chand Nawab, a journalist, and reporter by profession. In 2008, a video of me surfaced on YouTube in which I fumbled while reporting Eid Festival frenzy at a Railway station.
While reporting, I was contently interrupted by people, my fumbling and constant irritation made this video viral getting millions of views on YouTube and Facebook.
My popularity again surged in 2016 when my viral video inspired Indian filmmaker Kabir Khan to create Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s character in his 2015 blockbuster ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’. I got fame overnight getting a lot of love and appreciation from India and Pakistan especially from Bollywood star Salman Khan and other cast of Bajrangi Bhaijaan.�
As soon as this news broke the internet, several netizens were already keen to buy the video.
