Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar's 19-Year Feud

Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar's 19-Year Feud

Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar were once good friends and worked together in the film 'Parinda' in 1989.

However, a disagreement over Nana's role led to a 19-year feud.

Anil had suggested that Jackie Shroff would be better suited to play his brother, and Nana was instead cast as the villain.

This upset Nana, and he stopped talking to Anil for 19 years.

He even called Anil 'bakwas' (nonsense) in an interview.

Anil later admitted that the final decision was the director's.

The two actors finally reconciled in 2007 when they worked together again in the film 'Welcome'.
