Nana Patekar Apologizes for Hitting Fan During Selfie Incident

Nana Patekar, a senior actor who gained fame in Bollywood for his distinctive acting, recently responded to the incident where he was seen behaving rudely with a young man on the set of the movie One Was. This incident went viral on social media, and Nana has now clarified the situation. He expressed regret over his actions, stating that he should not have treated the young man in that manner.

Nana Patekar clarified, "A young man approached me for a selfie while I was in the middle of a shot." All the actors were busy filming. At that moment, the young man stood next to me and was taking a photo, which made me angry, and I hit him. This became a controversy. I was wrong in doing that. He came with love to take a selfie. He didn't know we were in the middle of a shot. There is a right time and place to show love to someone. If he had come after the shoot and asked for a selfie, there wouldn't have been any issue."

In November of the previous year, Nana Patekar was shooting for One Was in Varanasi. During the shoot, locals showed great interest in meeting him. At that time, a young man approached Nana to take a selfie. Annoyed by his behavior, Nana hit the young man on the head. A video of the incident went viral on the internet, with many people criticizing Nana for his behavior towards a fan. Nana Patekar later apologized to the young man. Directed by Anil Sharma, One Was features Shruti Marathe and Ashwini Kalsekar in key roles and will release on December 20.
