A Voice Falls Silent, An Echo Remains Eternal!
Deeply saddened by the passing of veteran actor Nana Patekar ji, a towering presence in Indian cinema and one of its most compelling, unconventional talents.
From the smouldering intensity of Parinda, Krantiveer, Prahaar and Ab Tak Chhappan to the unforgettable emotional grandeur of Marathi cinema’s Natsamrat, and his delightful comic turn in Welcome, Nana traversed the entire spectrum of human emotion with extraordinary authenticity. His gravelly voice, piercing gaze, explosive dialogue delivery and ability to make even silence speak made him a performer without parallel. A recipient of the Padma Shri and three National Film Awards, he was never merely an actor playing a character; he seemed to inhabit its very soul.
For me, as a Maharashtrian with roots in Ratnagiri, his passing carries a particularly poignant resonance.** Nana embodied the earthy candour, cultural pride and indomitable spirit of Maharashtra. Beyond the arc lights, his compassion found expression in his work for drought-stricken farmers and rural communities through the NAAM Foundation. An artist of formidable intensity, a man of disarming simplicity, and a humanitarian whose concern extended far beyond the screen.
नटसम्राट पडद्यावरून निरोप घेतो, पण रसिकांच्या हृदयातून कधीच नाही.
The curtain may have fallen, but his voice, his characters and his remarkable legacy will continue to reverberate through generations.
भावपूर्ण श्रद्धांजली, नाना! ॐ शांती।
A thousand lights for peace — and Gandhi’s light still travels through generations. 🕊️
Honoured to deliver the keynote at the Gandhi Museum in Houston, now aptly named the Eternal Gandhi Museum — a name that captures the timelessness of a philosophy whose moral force transcends generations. At “1000 Lights for Peace,” I reflected on why Gandhi’s truth force, soul force and non-violence remain urgently relevant in a world of conflict, climate distress, humanitarian crises and technological disruption. Gandhi Jayanti must be more than remembrance; it must be renewal.
I also spoke about how Gandhi’s spirit permeates Swallowing the Sun and shapes its young protagonists — inspiring their engagement with the freedom movement and gradually becoming part of their moral compass. Gandhi is not merely a historical presence in the novel, but a force that shapes how they understand courage, freedom, justice and their own capacity to change history.
Heartfelt greetings to the brave men and women of @IAF_MCC on the occasion of #AirForceDay. Their valour, sacrifice and selfless service are a source of immense pride for every Indian.
Their spirit of service shines just as brightly in times of calamities when they are among the first to reach out with a helping hand.
A grateful nation salutes our Air Warriors.
I pay homage to the freedom fighter and relentless champion of India’s democratic values, Bharat Ratna Lok Nayak Jayaprakash Narayan Ji, on his death anniversary.
He led the people’s voice & might against the oppressive emergency in the mid 1970s.
जेपी आंदोलन ने इमरजेंसी के दौरान भारतवासियों की आवाज़, हौसले और शक्ति को बुलंद किया और तत्कालीन सरकार को झँझोड़ दिया।
आज उनकी पुण्यतिथि पर मैं महान स्वतंत्रता सेनानी एवं प्रजातांत्रिक मूल्यों के रक्षक भारत रत्न लोकनायक जयप्रकाश नारायण जी को श्रद्धा सुमन अर्पित करता हूँ।
प्रख्यात अभिनेता ‘पद्म श्री’ नाना पाटेकर जी के निधन का समाचार अत्यंत दुःखद है।
नाना पाटेकर जी का जाना कला जगत के साथ-साथ उनके असंख्य प्रशंसकों के लिए भी एक अपूरणीय क्षति है। उनका सशक्त अभिनय और यादगार किरदार लंबे समय तक हमारी स्मृतियों में जीवित रहेंगे।
ईश्वर से प्रार्थना है कि दिवंगत आत्मा को अपने श्रीचरणों में स्थान दें और उनके परिजनों एवं प्रशंसकों को यह गहन दुःख सहने की शक्ति प्रदान करें।
ॐ शांति।
A 50-basis-point upgrade. A stronger economic foundation. A higher ceiling for India’s ambitions! 🇮🇳
The World Bank has raised India’s FY27 GDP growth forecast to 7.1%, recognising the remarkable strength of domestic demand despite global uncertainties and external pressures.
More importantly, it has upgraded India’s medium-term potential growth from 6.5% to around 7% - a powerful endorsement of the economy’s underlying dynamism. With 7.2% projected for FY28 and 7% for FY29, the outlook points towards sustained momentum.
Global confidence is converging, with the OECD also forecasting 7.1%, while ADB, S&P Global and Moody’s project 7%. Structural reforms, GST rationalisation and the untapped productivity potential of Artificial Intelligence could provide further impetus to India's economic transformation.
India is not merely exceeding expectations - it is expanding its economic possibilities!
From resilience to resurgence, from ambition to achievement - India’s economic ascent gathers pace! 🇮🇳
बड़ी ही दुखद खबर है। एक और लीजेंड हमसे बिछड़ गया।
अपने फिल्मी करियर में नाना पाटेकर ने अनगिनत कल्ट डायलॉग दिए।
ऐसा शायद ही कोई होगा, जिसने उनके किसी न किसी डायलॉग की मिमिक्री करने की कोशिश न की हो-और नहीं तो कभी न कभी कंट्रोल उदय, कंट्रोल तो कहा ही होगा।
यादगार अभिनय, बेबाकी से अपनी राय रखने का अंदाज और हर दौर में अपनी अलग पहचान।
भावपूर्ण श्रद्धांजलि।
ॐ शांति 🙏
