Kaun Banega Crorepati 16: Nana Patekar Shares Why He Didn’t Want to Do Welcome’s Famous ‘Aloo Lelo, Kanda Lelo’ Scene
Bollywood actor Nana Patekar, known for his powerful performances, is all set to appear on Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, hosted by Amitabh Bachchan. The episode promises to be a delightful watch as Nana shares personal stories, funny moments, and his camaraderie with the legendary host. One highlight of the show is Nana talking about his famous line from the hit movie Welcome.
The Iconic Dialogue
While Nana is mostly seen in intense roles, his comedic side in Welcome became a huge hit. During the show, a member of the audience brought up his legendary dialogue, “Aloo lelo, kaanda lelo…” The line has become a fan favorite over the years, inspiring memes and videos that keep it alive.
When asked if he knew it would become such a hit, Nana revealed a hilarious backstory. Initially, he was against doing the scene. “I was so upset with Anees Bazmee (the director). I thought, ‘What is this nonsense? Just because I signed the film, do I have to do whatever you say?’” Nana joked.
How It Happened
Nana shared that Anees Bazmee convinced him to give the line a shot. “Anees demonstrated the scene himself, saying, ‘Sir, just do it; it’ll suit you perfectly.’ I was still hesitant, so I asked him to show me exactly how to say it. He did, and I followed his lead. And guess what? It worked! The entire credit for that scene goes to Anees,” Nana said with a smile.
