Mumbai: The versatile Nana Patekar doesn’t have the thirst to do ‘award winning films’. He scoffs, “My yesteryear movies Parinda, Agnisakshi and Krantiveer don’t fall in the art film category. But they were also liked by audiences. I feel films shouldn’t be categorised as commercial or art movies.”

He adds, “I am going to speak the truth. If anyone here dislikes it, kindly excuse me for that. A few films that receive awards from the world over are often never even watched by audiences nor do they know them. I feel that films that highly educate and the ones with regular education can be watched on the same platform. They should be able to understand, as well as enjoy it. Short films, which can be understood by people belonging to every walk of life should be encouraged and made.”
