Nana Patekar criticises the recent release at the box office

During the media interaction, Nana Patekar seemingly criticised the recent hit films at the box office. The actor said, "Ab jis tarah ki filmein hit ho rahi hain... maine kal ek film jo bahut hi hit hui maine dekhi woh... Main matlab puri dekhi nahi pa raha tha. Lekin woh filmein bahut chalti hain. Ab mujhe lagta hai ki baar-baar hum iss tarike ka material dikhake logo ko majboor kartein hain yeh pasand karne ke liye (The kind of movies being made today are such that the other day I saw a recent hit film and I could not even sit through it. I feel by making such movies again and again, we force people to watch them)." Many wondered if the actor was hinting at films like Jawan, OMG 2, Gadar 2, and others, that performed well at the box office recently.

Nana Patekar further spoke about nepotism during the media interaction and said which loosely translated to, "I am an actor and tomorrow I will give my son many chances in films and force people to watch him, whether he deserves it or not. Some disgusting films are working and with time people will start saying they are good films as they will get used to seeing them.”
