Nana Patekar died on October 8 at his home in Goa due to a heart attack. Old videos of the late actor’s interviews and conversations have resurfaced online. In one such viral video, Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar are seen discussing Nana’s “anger issues”.

In the video, Anil Kapoor says that he has never seen Nana Patekar in parties.

“There’s just one thing, you can drink at home too. There are some drunkards at the party, who come under the pretense of drinking and make you drink. Then there are abuses. And my mind is such that I want to sleep,” says Nana. (That’s just a peg; I can drink at home too. There are some nasty people at parties who show up to drink and say nasty things. Then there’s swearing. And I’m so angry I could slap someone.)

“Since when did this anger issue arise? Everyone faces some form of anger. You can even think of it as love,” quips Anil Kapoor. (When did this anger issue start? You can’t go around slapping everyone. You can explain things with love.)

“Is he in a state of loving understanding? Is he drunk? He is not understanding the language,” says Nana. (Are they in a condition to understand loving words? They are drunk. They only understand the language.)

“That’s why many directors don’t want to work with you. Jo tu hai nahi, wo que banta hai, nana?” asks Anil Kapoor. (That’s why many directors don’t want to work with you, Nana. Why do you pretend to be someone you’re not?)

“At this age, I can change my outward image by changing my in-laws. Where am I, who am I,” says Nana Patekar. (At this age, I can change my outward appearance by changing my beard etc. But I am who I am), says Nana.

Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar have a decades-old friendship.

After Patekar’s death, Anil Kapoor wrote, “My friend left me…first Satish and now my Nanya. Nanya, you left me suddenly…the greatest actor in the world, I left you forever. I will miss you so much in life, on the sets, on the phone and on the big screen (my friend left me. First Satish, then Nanya, left the greatest artist in the world. I left you. The world.” The greatest artist in I left you. Life, on screen and on the phone.”

Anil’s daughter Sonam Kapoor wrote, “I’m so sorry dad. You really loved him.”
