Nana Patekar’s Quirky Side: A Story of Mutton, Dishes, and Box Office Success

Bollywood veterans Paresh Rawal and Nana Patekar have shared the screen in many memorable films, from ‘Welcome’ to ‘Krantiveer’. Paresh recently opened up about some hilarious behind-the-scenes stories involving Nana in an interview with Lallantop.

One story that stood out involved a producer Nana invited over for a mutton feast. After enjoying the meal, Nana apparently made the producer wash the dishes! Paresh, laughing about the anecdote, described Nana as a “legend” with a unique personality. He even recalled how Nana once commanded a whopping ₹1 crore fee for a character role, a bold move at a time when even leading actors wouldn’t dare to ask for that much.

It seems Nana Patekar is known for his straightforwardness and unconventional ways. But his talent is undeniable. While his recent film ‘Vanvaas’ received positive reviews, it didn’t quite hit it big at the box office.

Meanwhile, Paresh Rawal is keeping busy with a number of exciting projects, including reunions with Akshay Kumar in ‘Bhooth Bangla’ and the highly anticipated ‘Hera Pheri 3’. He’s also part of the star-studded cast of ‘Welcome to the Jungle’.
