From Parinda to Welcome: Nana Patekar, the Actor Who Never Needed to Be a Star, Dies at 75
Patekar's offscreen life was as unvarnished as his acting. He lived modestly, reportedly in a one-bedroom flat in Mumbai, and was close to his mother, who died in 2019 at 99. He was also known for the Naam Foundation, which he co-founded to support drought-hit farmers in Maharashtra. He received the Padma Shri in 2013.
