It came as a shock and disappointment to the fans of the Pakistani reporter as the starting bid price of the iconic “Karachi se” clip to be only 20 Ethereum tokens which is around Rs.10 Million PKR.

The reporter wrote in the bio section of the bidding platform

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.

 

The reporter’s popularity doubled and resurfaced when in 2016 “Karachi se clip” inspired the Indian filmmaker Kabir Khan to create Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s character in his 2015 blockbuster Bajrangi Bhaijaan. The reporter got overnight fame and a lot of love from India and Pakistan especially from Bollywood Bajrangi Bhaijaan cast and from the hero of the movie  Salman Khan.
