      Veteran actor Nana Patekar made headlines after a video of him smacking a fan who tried to take a selfie with him on sets of his film surfaced online.

      Now, the actor has issued a clarification.

      Nana Patekar said, ‘A video is going viral where I have hit a boy. Though this sequence is a part of our film, we had one rehearsal...We were scheduled to have a second rehearsal. The director told me to begin. We were about to begin when the boy in the video came in. I didn't know who he was, I thought he was one of our crew so I slapped him as per the scene and I told him to leave. Later, I came to know that he was not a part of the crew. So, I was going to call him back but he ran away. Maybe his friend shot the video. I have never said no to anybody for a photo. I don't do this...This happened by mistake...If there is some misunderstanding, please forgive me...I will never do anything like this...’

      Earlier, filmmaker Anil Sharma also issued a clarification and said that the video, which emerged online, was shot from his film ‘Journey’.

      Anil Sharma said, ‘I have just come to know about this news. I was watching the same video just now. Nana has not hit anyone, rather that is a shot from my film. We were filming it on the road in the middle of Banaras, where a boy who comes near Nana has to be hit on the head. Shooting was going on and Nana also hit him.’

      He added, ‘But the crowd gathered there recorded it on their mobile cameras and then leaked the shot of the film. Now, Nana is being projected as a negative and rude actor on social media, which is completely wrong...I would request that the fans understand the truth of this video. This is a shot from the film. Nana has not hit anyone.’

      Nana Patekar is shooting for ‘Journey’ with Anil and his son-actor Utkarsh Sharma in Varanasi.
