Ah, Bollywood! The land where dreams come true, and insecurities run wild like free-range chickens! Today’s tale is a classic masala mix of jealousy, drama, and a sprinkle of desi humor, starring none other than the magnificent Raveena Tandon. Our leading lady spilled some beans on how she lost film roles, thanks to a certain co-star’s insecure girlfriend. Chalo, let’s dive into the filmy kahaani!
Raveena Tandon, the iconic actress of the 90s, daughter of the legendary director Ravi Tandon, has always been a force to reckon with. From hits like Mohra and Dilwale to her recent stint in KGF Chapter 2, Raveena’s career has been a roller-coaster of blockbuster films. Recently, she shared a juicy tidbit from her past in an interview with Siddharth Kannan. Picture this: Raveena, at the peak of her career, gets replaced because some heroine’s girlfriend couldn’t handle the jodi’s hit chemistry! 😂
In the interview, she revealed how a co-star’s girlfriend wasn’t her biggest fan. “I was replaced intentionally,” she said, “because this girl did not like me, was insecure about me. She was dating a hero at that time and forced him to replace me.” Talk about drama, yaar! 🤦♀️
But wait, there’s more! Another favorite hero of hers was also pressured to remove her from a film. Raveena continued, “And then she pressurized another favorite hero of mine… ‘arey who make itna ROI, itna ROI ki main aap log ki purani gang hu aur aapne Kaise isko Lelia.’” Arrey baba, Bollywood mai loyalty bhi dosti jaisi hoti hai, kabhi bhi toot sakti hai!
To add to the mirch masala, the hero was later dumped by his girlfriend. He came running back to Raveena, begging her to join a film his ex had left midway. Raveena, with her signature sass, quipped, “I told him, ‘main to tereko pahle se bolti thi ki uski fitrat hi aisi hai.’” Destiny has its own script, and our Raveena knew how to play her part well.
Professionally, Raveena was last seen in Ghudchadi in 2024. Her daughter, Rasha Thadani, is also stepping into the limelight with her debut in Azaad.
