Nana Patekar recalled Irrfan Khan’s love of night-blooming jasmine

Nana Patekar recalled a visit to Irrfan Khan’s home in Madh when Khan was seriously ill.

Khan told him he loved raat rani, or night-blooming jasmine, and asked him to remember that.

Patekar said the memory sometimes made him think about planting the flower at Khan’s home.

He also remembered Khan as humble despite becoming a major star.

Khan died on April 29, 2020, after battling cancer.

Patekar died at age 75 on October 8, after a cardiac arrest.

The story is being remembered through Patekar’s old conversations following his death.
