Actor Prateik Babbar, son of Patil, dropped a heart icon in reaction to her look. A fan also reacted, “Wow..u remind me of Smita Patil.” Another commented, “Brilliant tribute and great to see a phenomenal actor like Smita Patil remembered. The poster shows you have done justice to portray her, I am sure it wasn’t to enact Smita Patil.”
