According to Nana, who was last seen playing a cold-blooded cop in Ram Gopal Varma produced Ab Tak Chhappan , “Amitabh Bachchan has ended up imitating himself.”
“He (Bachchan) used to be a good actor. But now he only plays himself,” were the tough words Nana had for the Bollywood icon.
From painting cinema posters to watching himself on the screen, Nana has come a long way. What sets him apart from the crowd is his intensity and passion for life - charting out his life's course on the less beaten path - and forever open for challenges. On the way up, he might have ruffled many a feather by his blunt manner.
However, according to Nana he does not 'interfere' but just makes his point.
"If I feel strongly about anything, I make it clear," Nana says referring to the creative differences he had with Marathi playwright Vijay Tendulkar and film directors Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Gulzar amongst others.
