Pawan Malhotra connection with Shahrukh Khan

Remember the man who played Tiger Menon in one of the most compelling films of the year - BLACK FRIDAY? He is Pawan Malhotra, an award winning actor who began his career with films like KHAMOSH, BAGH BAHADUR and SALIM LANGDE PE MAT RO around couple of decades back.

He moved on to do hardcore commercial cinema with PARDES where he played Shahrukh Khan's confidant but lost out due to a heavily chopped part. He returned with Shahrukh again, this time in a much better etched part in DON - THE CHASE BEGINS AGAIN where he enacted the part of Narang.

Now, he would be associated with a Shahrukh Khan film third time around in his upcoming release is MY NAME IS ANTHONY GONSALVES. With Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment as one of the producers along with E Niwas Productions and Sahara One Motion Pictures, the film marks the debut of Nikhil Dwivedi in the title role of Anthony Gonsalves.

Pawan Malhotra plays the role of Sikander Bhai, Anthony's benevolent benefactor and protector, who takes care of him since his childhood. As an elder brother, he makes sure that Anthony doesn't get anywhere near the periphery of his gang or his activities except for his legitimate business - a pub!
