Just three days before his death, actor Nana Patekar had spoken about mortality at a social event in Goa, telling the audience that everyone had to leave someday and that he did not know if he would be there the next day.
Patekar, 76, had made the remarks on October 4 at an event organised by Samraat Club International at Dona Paula near Panaji. He had also remembered his friend and former Goa chief minister Manohar Parrikar, describing him as someone whose life had been driven by a sense of purpose.
