Nana Patekar, known for intense performances, once spoke openly about how his life could have taken a very different turn. In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, he said his anger could have led him down the wrong path, and that had he not become an actor, he would likely have ended up in the underworld.
"People Were Afraid of Me"
Patekar said he got into many fights in his childhood. People feared him because of his short temper, he recalled. He added that his temper has calmed considerably over the years, but that he was once wary of his own nature and the risk of being on the wrong side of the road.
