Pakistani TV reporter Chand Nawab who is the real-life inspiration for Nawazuddin Siddiqui's character in Bajrangi Bhaijaan, was beaten up by the Karachi Railway Police while covering a story.

Nawab who considers himself as a "poor journalist" wants Salman Khan to compensate him for using his character in the recent blockbuster, Bajrangi Bhaijan.

Nawab, who works for 92 News Channel as a reporter, was manhandled at Cantt Station with his team by the police. According to reports, Nawab was reportedly covering scalping of train tickets when the railway officials and police allegedly beat him up and his team members.

Now for the good news. Salman Khan called him in the aftermath of the attack, so all should be well for Mr Nawab.
