Quotes

Aneet Padda

Actor and Saiyaara star who paid tribute to Nana Patekar.

“To have met him so early in my journey, and then to work with him, is something I'll always be grateful for. I learnt so much just by observing him, and looking back, I realise how precious those moments were. That one of his last films was with me still leaves me without words. It feels surreal. I'm grateful our paths crossed, even if only for a short while, and I'll carry it for the rest of my life. Rest in peace. Sir.”
