I am writing this post to give a big applause for an ardent actor of bollywood and marathi industry who is none other than the great Nana patekar who was born on 1st January 1951 in Maharashtra. From making his debut in Hindi films in the year 1978 and thereafter, he is the one who played every role with full commitment as if in reality. Believe me or not but if at any point of time you want to refute me back, just go and see his performance in wajood after which you all will have no point to contradict the very obvious. I was really mesmerized by his performance in this movie where he performed the character of a drama artist named Malhar(Name of his only son is also Malhar :D). Nevertheless to say, i feel this movie truly depicts his potential and should be watched by everyone.
While many can articulate the fact by referring that nana can only do serious roles, nana has set a great example by denying this thought in the movie welcome where he played a comic role which was applauded by everyone.
He has also done playback singing in some movies like Yeshwant, aanch and wajood.
Coming to his greatest films, i would like to cite one of the biggest hit of 1994 Krantiveer. Well who can forget the laugh and then a harsh dialogue delivered at the end of the movie by nana to all the people who came to see the capital punishment given to him(aa gaye meri maut ka tamasha dekhne :D). Below is the remembrance for the same. I hope you would have remembered everything from this image :D
For his outstanding role in this film, he won the film-fare award and the star screen awards in the best actor category.The revolutionary speech given by nana was not only confined to film level but it also holds true fact for a matter of concern which everyone of us must be aware of.
Just in the same year 1994, there was one more solid performance by nana in the movie Tirangaa where he played the role of inspector waagle(Pehle laat fir Baat :D). Below is excerpt from this movie.
Some of the other unforgettable movies are - Agnisakshi,Tirangaa(Inspector Waagle),Ab tak chhappan,Shakti,Yeshwant(Ek macchar aadmi ko hijda bana deta hai :D),Taxi No. 9211 and Aanch. He is also a recipient of Padma Shri award for his always brilliant performances to the film industry.
Besides his acting career, he is a very generous kind man who always donates to the poor and needy people. He has got a eccentric style which has created a unique identity for him making him a star whose style cannot be compared to any other actor.
From my side, i have only word for nana and which is respect because he truly deserved it.May you live as long as you wish and love as long as you live.

He is the only actor in the indian cinema history to win filmfare awards in all three categories including best actor,best supporting actor and best villian. Not to forget is the fact that he is also an honorary captain in the Indian army and was trained by the Indian film, for his role of army officer in the film Prahaar: The final attack
