Nana said - "Ye to mai hamesha aapse milta rehta hun toh mujhe koi dikkat nahi thi lekin unhone jab kaha hai to mujhe ye karna pada. so will you please pardon me for that! Thank You!"
Media - "Nana ek line mei bataa dete bas aap.. apne statement de deejiye bas aap!"
Nana: "10 saal pehle jo bola tha wo hi bolna hai! kya bolna hai! kal jo sach tha wo aaj sach hai! aaj jo sach hai wo kal sach hi rahega. wo badalte nahi rahega!" [He gets up with his hands folded]
In one of her recent interviews, Tanushree has revealed that Nana Patekar had harassed her on the sets of 2008 film 'Horn OK Pleassss' and even demanded to do an intimate dance step with her during the song's shooting which made her comfortable. Big Bollywood names like Priyanka Chopra, Kangana Ranaut, Farhan Akhtar among others came out in Tanusree's support calling it India's #MeToo movement.
While returning to Mumbai recently from his 'Housefull 4' shoot in Jaisalmer, Nana had reacted to press following him and urging him for his reaction on Tanushree's alleagations, with "I have already answered... Jo jhooth hai woh jhooth hai (what is a lie is a lie)".
