Following Nana Patekar's death, actress Tanushree Dutta called him a 'shaitaan', claimed he was still harassing her, and described his passing as an 'act of god' because he wouldn't stop. She also shared a video mentioning that she wanted to focus on her work event in Lucknow while expressing concern about media coverage.
The controversy between Tanushree Dutta and Nana Patekar began in 2018 during India's #MeToo movement. Tanushree publicly accused Patekar of sexual harassment and inappropriate behavior during the filming of a song for the 2008 movie Horn Ok Pleassss at Filmistan Studios in Mumbai.
Tanushree Dutta stated that it took five years to convince a prime witness, her former hairdresser, who provided an affidavit supporting her claims. However, the judge ultimately closed the case, though Tanushree maintained that she was right and Patekar was wrong. Police previously filed a closure report in 2019 noting insufficient evidence.
