Nana Patekar can be heard saying in the video, “Dekhiye, ek video viral ho raha hai jaha maine ek bacche ko mara hai. Hala ke ye sequence hamare ek film ka hissa hai. Humne ek rehearsal kar di thi. Ek piche se banda aake bolta hai, ‘Ye bura topi bechni ha?’ Maine hat pehna hua hai. Mein use marta hu. Mein kehta hu, ‘Badtameezi bandh karo, tameez se pesh aao. Ye tarika nehi hai.’ Aur woh bhag jata hai. Ek rehearsal kar chuke the. Director ne kaha aur ek bar karni hai. Hum suru hi kar ne wale the ke itne me ye baccha jo video me hai andar aa gaya.”
The video circulating on the internet is from Varanasi where the 72-year-old actor is shooting for his next feature film “Journey” with filmmaker Anil Sharma.

But visibly upset Nana Patekar smacked the boy on the back of his head and a guard, who was standing close to the actor, grabbed the young fan by his neck and escorts him away.
