Nana Patekar and Manisha Koirala starred in two films in 1996. They were Agnisakshi and Khamoshi – The Musical. Their off-screen chemistry and love affair had caught the eye of the public. To add to it Manisha’s neighbors also informed that Nana was even spotted leaving her house early in the mornings.
Both the stars were known for being short tempered. Above that Nana was said to be extremely possessive about Manisha and would object on issues like wearing revealing clothes or doing bold scenes. This heated their relationship and Manisha realized that even though she loved Nana she was heading towards a dead end.
Nana was living separately and it all ended when Manisha once spotted Nana and Ayesha Julkha in a closed room (reports also stated in an intimate moment). There were some harsh words for Ayesha. Nana wanted to mend the relationship with Manisha but she was not interested anymore.
On the break-up Nana once told to a leading magazine that, Manisha is the most sensitive actress around. She is like a kasturi hiran, (deer) she still needs to realize that she doesn't need to keep pace with anyone. She has it all and that's more than enough. He said that he can barely hold back his tears when he sees what she had done to herself. He also said that he has nothing to say on the matter today.
A break-up is a very difficult phase. You have to experience it to know the pain. He said he cannot describe the pain that he went through. The concluding lines of his interview were, “I miss Manisha."
