00:02The National Award is now made of the factory.
00:05It's now 3 and 4 and 5.
00:08What? 3 and 4 are you?
00:113 and 4 are you?
00:13Our journey is very high.
00:16But I think this is more than a year in the film industry.
00:20How many years have you been?
00:2250 years.
00:24How are you?
00:24We should talk about it.
00:28We are a senior in the industry.
00:31But I'm telling you,
00:32we were looking for a little bit.
00:37We didn't have a little fun.
00:39We didn't have a lot of fun.
00:42And this guy,
00:43I need to think about it again.
00:48Thank you very much.
01:07That was an interaction that we had with the team of the vaccine war in 2023.
01:14This was another side of Nana Patekar.
01:17Not many saw in public.
01:20He could laugh.
01:21He could make you laugh.
01:23And not just in films, but in real life.
01:26He was so full of anecdotes and stories.
01:29Once he opened up,
01:31he was so pure, so clean,
01:33that, you know, in his heart,
01:35that there would be so many stories that would just pour out.
01:38One of the most iconic actors of the film industry,
01:42Nana Patekar.
01:44He sadly passed away at the age of 75 in Goa this morning.
01:47He suffered a massive cardiac arrest at his residence very early this morning.
01:51Nana Patekar had complained that he was feeling unwell.
01:55He was found unconscious at home.
01:57He was rushed to hospital.
01:59Doctors attempted to revive him for nearly 45 minutes.
02:02But despite their best efforts, he could not be saved.
02:05He was declared dead around 5.20 this morning.
02:09His mortal remains will now be taken to his farmhouse near Pune.
02:13His final rites will be performed with full state honours.
02:17The Maharashtra government has announced a state funeral,
02:21honouring his immense contribution not just to Marathi theatre,
02:25but also to Hindi and Marathi cinema.
02:28His death triggered an outpouring of grief across the country.
02:32President Draupadi Murmu remembered him as a very powerful and evocative voice.
02:37His performances.
02:38Vice President CP Radhakrishnan described him as a very versatile actor,
02:42immensely talented.
02:43Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid rich tributes to the veteran actor,
02:47remembering his intensity, his individuality and his unmistakable presence.
02:53The Prime Minister said,
02:54Nanapatikar brought remarkable versatility and creativity to every role.
03:00And his contribution to both Hindi and Marathi cinema was immense.
03:04Some actors entertain us.
03:07Some leave an imprint.
03:10Nanapatikar did both.
03:11From the comic brilliance of Uday Shetty to the firebrand of Pratap,
03:17the menace of Anna Seth and the vulnerability of Natsamrat.
03:23He inhabited every character and unmatched intensity.
03:28I remember meeting him in Kargil, the war in 1999.
03:35He trained for Prahar as a commando.
03:38In fact, the current governor of Mizoram,
03:41General V.K. Singh, former chief of army staff, General V.K. Singh,
03:44then a left-in-colonel had trained him.
03:47He behaved every inch a commando, not just for the film.
03:51When the Kargil war happened, he came to Kargil, he came to Dras,
03:55went to Leh, went to North Kashmir, and he served there,
03:59including with the quick reaction team.
04:02Let's take a look at some of his performances
04:05that made Nanapatikar unforgettable,
04:09immortal on screen.
04:11He will forever live on in our hearts and on the silver screen.
