Nawazuddin is at the peak of popularity since the success of 'Thackeray' and just like the industry, his fans too do not seem to be getting enough of the actor. Recently when Nawazuddin made a public appearance, he was mobbed by his eager fans who lost their calm and became violent in their bid to get a closer look at their favourite celeb.

The video capturing the incident has since been actively circulated on social media, and we can see fans pulling and tugging at Nawazuddin, regardless of the actor being heavily guarded. However, the guards do step in right on cue and take Nawazuddin to safety.
