It is noteworthy that Nana Patekar is also in an important role in the film ‘O Romeo’ and he has worked with Vishal Bhardwaj for the first time. At the same time, during the show, Kapil Sharma asked Vishal why he had not worked with Nana earlier despite knowing him for more than two decades. To this, Vishal said, “Actually, it is my fault. I never approached him with such a role before. Everyone is afraid of Nana Patekar, even though he is a very soft-hearted person. Nana also remained angry with me for not working with me. He used to remind me that he is an actor and ask when I will cast him. Eventually we worked together, but it took time.” Kapil said in the conversation that Nana Patekar is rarely seen in public programs and till now he has not come to his show. He said in a light tone that nowadays the news of Nana leaving an event becomes more viral than the news of his coming to the event.

Vishal Bhardwaj had given reaction: The film’s director Vishal Bhardwaj had also given reaction on Nana Patekar’s early departure. He had said on Nana Patekar at the event, ‘Nana has left from here, but we should speak for him. Nana is like the mischievous kid in school who makes fun of everyone, who entertains the most and with whom everyone wants to be, Nana has that in him. We have been friends for 27 years and have worked together for the first time. It would have been great if he had been there, but he got up in his signature style saying ‘made me wait for an hour, I am leaving’ and we didn’t feel bad because we know that this is what makes him Nana Patekar. Let us tell you that Shahid Kapoor, Trupti Dimri, Farida Jalal, Nana Patekar, Vikrant Massey, Disha Patani, Tamanna and Avinash Tiwari are seen in ‘O Romeo’ directed by Vishal Bhardwaj and produced by Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.
