Nana Patekar on his equation with Vidhu Vinod Chopra, ‘wish every meeting to be the last’

 

Nana Patekar recently spoke about his equation with the filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra and said that he doesn’t like him and in fact every time he works with him he wishes it to be the last. The actor recalled working for his film ‘Parinda’ which was released in 1989 and mentioned that he only has ‘bad memories’ about working with Vidhu.

He said, “Every time I meet Vidhu Vinod Chopra, I wish this was our last time.” Further adding, "I don't like Vidhu Vinod Chopra. I have no control over my anger. I am still the same. That aspect of my life hasn't changed yet. Every scene has its setting, tune, and note, there is a way to talk. Now, I don't know if you watched Parinda, I was in the character, so when the director says, Lights, camera, clap', if you aggressively say "action', it starts to linger in your ears. It echoes and hurts your ears."

"Let us be in our character please. What happens, when someone shouts, we forget the note that is required for the scene and unknowingly pick director's note. Just say ‘action' calmly. Let us get into our character and note. It is because of this we must have had a tiff. I have very bad memories of him (Vidhu Vinod Chopra) and even habits." He concluded, "Vidhu, please hear this. I want to tell you all this to your face and not behind your back."

Vidhu’s latest directorial ‘12th Fail’ starring Vikrant Massey has garnered massive reviews and audiences have praised the film again and again. The film continued to be screened in the theatres even after having its digital release which is a big mark for the project. Whereas Nana returned to acting with his latest film  ‘The Vaccine War’ which has been directed by Vivek Agnihotri.
