Regional films and occasional mainstream work (2011-present)[edit | edit source]
In 2011, he starred in the critically acclaimed Shagird and the Marathi film Deool.

After appearing in low budget films like It's My Life (2020) and Tadka (2022), in 2023, Patekar headlined Vivek Agnihotri directed The Vaccine War, which tells about the development of Covaxin during the COVID-19 pandemic in India. The film was a commercial and critical failure but Patekar's performance received high praise as Renuka Vyavahare of The Times of India wrote "Nana Patekar is outstanding but the film reduces itself to being a government mouthpiece parading as a medical drama."[13]
Nana Patekar played a supporting role in the ensemble comedy thriller Housefull 5. The film opened to poor reception, with Lachmi Deb Roy of Firstpost, publishing a negative review, but praising Patekar's "jolly good" role as one of the film's few redeeming qualities.[14]
Singing career[edit | edit source]
Patekar did some playback singing in the films Yeshwant (1997), Wajood (1998) and Aanch (2003).
Personal life[edit | edit source]
Patekar married Neelkanti in 1978,[15] together they had two sons named 'Durvasa' and 'Malhar'. Durvasa died at 2 and half years of age due to illness.[16] Nana's father died of a heart attack when Nana was 28; he has two brothers named Ashok and Dilip Patekar.[17] Patekar was a chain smoker until he quit at the age of 56. In an interview, he said that his father loved plays and encouraged him to watch them. This is how he developed his love for acting. Vijaya Mehta directed his first play.[6] Patekar remained close with his mother, Nirmala Patekar, who lived with him, until her death on 29 January 2019 at the age of 99.[18]
Patekar joined the Territorial Army as a Captain in 1988. He underwent a three-year training to prepare for the movie Prahaar, and worked with General V. K. Singh, who had the rank of Lt. Colonel at that time and had a cameo appearance. During the Kargil War in 1999, Patekar also lent his services in the Maratha Light Infantry regiment at the rank of Major. He retired from the Territorial Army in 2013 as Lieutenant Colonel.[19]
Nana Patekar has been separated from his wife. He also had relationships with Manisha Koirala and Ayesha Jhulka.[20]
He lives in Andheri, Mumbai in a 1BHK apartment.[citation needed]
Controversy[edit | edit source]
 | This article's Criticism or Controversy section may compromise the article's neutral point of view of the subject. (July 2025) |
In 2008, Tanushree Dutta accused Patekar of sexually harassing her on the sets of the movie Horn 'Ok' Pleassss. In March 2008, she filed a complaint with 'CINTAA' (Cine & TV Artists Association) but no action was taken then. This allegation was repeated in an interview in 2013[21] and again made in 2018.[22][23] In late 2018, CINTAA apologized to Dutta admitting that the "chief grievance of sexual harassment wasn't even addressed (in 2008)" but added that since the case was more than three years old, they could not reopen it.[24][25][26]
In 2018, Dutta restated her accusation of sexual harassment by Patekar in 2018, and her accusations led to the Me Too movement coming to Bollywood.[27][28][29] Subsequently, she complained to the Maharashtra Women Commission and demanded an investigation into the allegations of harassment levelled by her against Patekar, Ganesh Acharya, producer Samee Siddiqui, director Rakesh Sarang, and several Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) party workers.[30][31] In the late hours of 1 October 2018, An FIR was registered against Patekar and three others at Oshiwara police station following a complaint by Dutta late on Wednesday night. Patekar, choreographer Ganesh Acharya, director Rakesh Sarang and producer Samee Siddiqui were booked for molestation and obscenity under the Indian Penal Code (IPC).[32]
In June 2019, Patekar was cleared of the sexual harassment charges. The B-Summary report filed by the Oshiwara police station in Mumbai said that the complaint filed by Dutta could be "malicious" and "out of revenge".[33][34] Dutta said that her lawyers may approach the Bombay High Court to reopen the case.[35][36]
Philanthropy[edit | edit source]
Patekar is known for his simple lifestyle[37][38] and his generosity in donating to charities. He contributed money towards rebuilding of the flood ravaged villages in Bihar through the charitable organisation Anubhuthi.[39] All the monetary remuneration he obtained for his performance in the movie Paathshaala was donated by him to five different charitable organisations.[40] When he was awarded the Raj Kapoor award which carries a cash prize of Rs 1,000,000, he donated the entire amount towards drought relief activities in Maharashtra.[41] He also provided financial aid to families of farmers who committed suicide due to indebtedness brought about by drought. He distributed cheques worth Rs 15,000 to 62 families of farmers from Vidarbha region in August 2015, and another 113 families from Latur and Osmanabad districts of Marathwada in September 2015.[42][43]
In September 2015, Patekar established the Naam Foundation, with fellow Marathi actor Makarand Anaspure, which works to provide aid to farmers overcome by drought conditions in Maharashtra.[44]
Using a Twitter campaign with the hashtag IcareIsupport, Patekar was able to obtain funds to help Maharashtra drought victims.[45]
