The property most closely associated with Nana Patekar’s love for the countryside is his farmhouse around Khadakwasla and Donje near Pune. Reports have described the property as a large agricultural retreat, with sources differing on its exact acreage.
The farmhouse has reportedly featured around seven rooms, a large hall, wooden furniture, terracotta flooring and exposed beams. Instead of an overly luxurious Bollywood-style interior, the design was earthy and practical, with plants and natural elements forming an important part of the home.
Nana was also deeply involved in farming. Reports have mentioned crops including rice, wheat, chickpeas, pulses and other produce. Older accounts also describe cattle, goats and hens being raised on the property. For Nana, the farmhouse was not simply a weekend luxury retreat — it was closely connected to his identity as a farmer.
The property has also been described locally as ‘Nanachi Wadi’, with a stone-built farmhouse, farmland, fruit and flowering trees, a large well and spaces for animals.
