His name is Chand Nawab and he is said to be asking for compensation from Salman Khan for using his character as a reference! “I am very thankful to Salman bhai, who considered my character worthy enough to be given a role in his movie, but I expect him to give me a compensation for using me as an inspiration for a character,” he is quoted as saying.

Nawab, who works for a Pakistani TV channel came to the limelight when a clip of him shooing away passersby interrupting his reportage by walking between him and the cameraman was uploaded. He even mouthed a few obscenities and the video clip went viral online. A similar scene has been shown in BB with Nawaz recreating the scene.
