Nana Patekar to direct his Second film








Nana Patekar, who once discussed ideas with Ram Gopal Varma to make films for the director’s banner, has now teamed up with a new producer-friend in Prakash Jha who will finance his second directorial venture. Nana said, “It is an out-and-out love story.


No car chases, no murder sequences, no fight scenes. It’s just a simple love story. It’s about a girl who encounters a loner. They meet for a while and then she goes away.

Nana plays a retired 45-year-old hero in the movie. “I play a guy who fears attachments. He believes that whoever he gets attached to dies.

“I want only Rani Mukherjee for my lead. I’m sure the minute she hears the subject, she’ll agree,” he said. During the making of Bhoot, Nana and Varma spent all their after-hours discussing ideas for films that Nana could direct for Varma’s banner but after the shooting completed, they drifted apart.
