He shares anecdotes and forms a special bond with Amitabh Bachchan, reflecting on their incredible journeys.
The audience has always known Nana for his powerful performances in serious roles and seeing him in a comedy film is truly a treat for the eyes. And guess what? Here’s some exciting news for all the Nana Patekar fans—he’s currently shooting for the new sequel of Houseful! He shared this news with Mr. Bachchan on KBC, telling him, “Just yesterday, I met Abhishek and said, ‘I just finished shooting with you, and tomorrow, I’ll be shooting with your father!'”
Later, an audience member asks Nana, “In the movie Welcome, there’s your iconic dialogue, ‘Aloo lelo, kaanda lelo…’ Did you know it would become such a cult moment?”
Nana Patekar replies, mentioning the director of the film Anees Bazmee, “I was ready to go after Anees! I was thinking, ‘What nonsense is this? Just because we’ve signed the film, does that mean you can make us do anything you want?’ But then Anees showed me how to do it— ‘Aloo lelo… kaanda lelo…’ He said, ‘Sir, just do it, it’ll look good on you.’ I told him, ‘It feels weird, you show me first!’ He did it, and I just followed along. And guess what? It worked! So, all the credit for that iconic moment goes to Anees.
Tune in for a memorable evening as Nana and Amitabh Bachchan bond over their incredible careers and shared experiences. This Friday, be sure to tune in to this special episode on ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati 16’ at 9 PM.
