'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' has not just been a hit on Indian soil but our neighbouring countries have also poured in their kind words appreciations for the talented actor Nawazzuddin Siddiqui.

An elated Nawaz said, "I am overwhelmed by the responses that have been pouring inn from all around. I am happy my character is appreciated and liked. I'm hopeful this will give me boast for my future small films!"

Nawaz's role as a Pakistani television journalist Chaand in the film has become the talk of many. In fact, the now famous journalist also called Nawaz and couldn't thank him for making him popular amongst his people. It is said that Chaand Nawab had almost lost his job and was rejected by many channels. This sudden popularity has not just made him a recognisable face but also has helped him get his job back. Now that's some impact !

Sources closed to the actor said , "The phone hasn't stop ringing and we are pleasantly surprised that the calls are not just from here. Even people from Pakistan and Sri Lanka have been calling to appreciate his role.
