'Tourists don't just come to Goa for it's beaches but for it's people too' Says noted Bollywood actor Nana Patekar
Watch him talking very high about Goa http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sryLZyyzUpg Nana Patekar is a noted bollywood actor known for his natural way of acting He is known to give generously to the poor This is what he says in the video ( partly translated- I may be wrong) 'If I speak Konkani today, neither you nor I will understand it' ‘I like the way it is done in Goa where all people come together to celebrate shigmo or the Goan culture.. no matter what religion you belong to.’. ‘I myself does not believe in any religion’ When he was born he did not know whether he belong to Hindu, Muslim or Christian. He also says people /tourists don’t just come to Goa for the beaches but for the Goan peace loving people too. He also says in Konkani ‘ Maka soiro munn apoilo’ but next time invite me as committee member’ He repeatedly urged the Goan people to maintain their unique identity. ‘You know me as an actor what you didn’t know that I was a painter too’ He once designed a Republic day float at New Delhi and got paid Rs.460 which helped him to pay his school term fees. Srinivas Dempo (also seen) suggested Nana Patekar to make a film on Goa based on Goan Culture etc (not covered in the video).
