Nawazuddin Siddiqui, the acclaimed actor known for his diverse roles, recently opened up about his experience working alongside Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. 

Collaborating on films like 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' and 'Kick,' Nawazuddin shared an interesting anecdote that shed light on the disparity between being a star and an actor.
