Bollywood filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra is celebrating 30 years of Parinda by sharing videos and clips from his iconic film Parinda, ahead of the film’s actual release date on November 3rd. The director shared a glimpse of Nana Patekar who won a National Award for his role of fiery Anna in Parinda. 

Reminiscing about the shooting days, the filmmaker shared one of the iconic scenes from the film where Nana Patekar caught fire. Taking to social media, Vidhu Vinod Chopra shares, “Nana Patekar's #NationalAward winning portrayal of the fiery Anna in #Parinda remains etched in the minds of cinema-goers, long after watching the film. Watch #VidhuVinodChopra share how the climax was shot. #30YearsOfParinda @Nanagpatekar @bindasbhidu @AnilKapoor"

Showing one the important scenes from the film, where Jackie Shroff and Nana Patekar were dealing with fire, the director-producer shares, "The fire was real in the scene as those days there was no digital fire. For that scene, Nana Patekar had refused to wear the fire suit" as the actor felt that his acting would be ruined. "So I said I won't shoot if you won’t wear the suit. After that he wore the suit so I said wear your pyjama as well," recalls Vidhu Vinod Chopra.

He further went on to explain how he left thinking that Nana would wear the suit but in reality, he did not wear. The fire was real with rubber solution and showing the scene he also said this is when the actor got burned. 

Released in 1989 the movie featured Jackie Shroff, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Madhuri Dixit, Anupam Kher and many more.

Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s next project is Shikara and slated to release in 2019.
