Chand Nawab became a household name in India after a character inspired from him featured in Salman Khan's recent blockbuster Bajrangi Bhaijaan. And this news of him getting beaten up has really come as a shocker for all those who admire him.
However, it is not yet clear whether Chand Nawab stepped out of the permitted limits while covering the news or it was an over reaction from the railway police.
Sindh minister Nisar Khuhro has taken notice of the incident and ordered an inquiry into it, said the channel.
