Nana Patekar Almost Missed 'Thodasa Roomani Ho Jayen' Role

Imagine a movie director, Amol Palekar, who almost didn't cast the famous actor Nana Patekar in his film, 'Thodasa Roomani Ho Jayen'.

Palekar had heard Patekar could be a bit fiery, so he was worried.

Patekar really wanted the part and worked hard to prove he could play a soft, poetic character.

He rehearsed a lot and changed how he acted.

There was also a story about a fight Patekar had with another director, Vidhu Vinod Chopra, during another movie called 'Parinda'.

But in the end, Patekar showed everyone he could be exactly what the role needed.
