'Nana Patekar not getting Rs.90 mn'(Snippets)

Mumbai, May 29 (IANS) Leave alone being paid Rs.90 million, veteran actor Nana Patekar has not been even approached by Shree Ashtavinayak CineVision Ltd for a year, says a spokesperson of the company.

'We haven't even approached Nana Patekar for more than a year. We still don't have an appropriate script which suits his image and there is absolutely no truth to stories saying we have given him Rs.90 million for a film,' said a spokesperson from the production house.

A Mumbai-based tabloid reported last week that Nana, who was supposedly doing a film for them, was first offered Rs.30 million for the said film.

Later, when he was approached for a change in dates due to Sanjay Dutt, he demanded double the amount. When there was another change in dates, Nana further increased his price to Rs.90 million.

The tabloid also quoted a source from the production house as saying it 'had no option but to accept Nana's condition'.
