From slamming blind items by entertainment reporters to opening up about adopting 2 daughters at the age of 21, it is no news that Raveena Tandon speaks her mind, oftentimes without a filter. The actor who has made a comeback in her acting career with ‘Aranyak’ split the tea on her acting career.
According to Hindustan Times, Raveena Tandon was dropped from projects allegedly because the hero’s girlfriend felt insecure and wanted her out.

“I was replaced intentionally 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 because we were a hit pair. Forced him to replace with other heroines. So I lost out on 1-2 films on that account,” she said.
Apparently, the woman in question had Raveena replaced in a film featuring a different hero too.
“And then she pressurised another favourite hero of mine to replace me from another movie. That hero came and told me, ‘arey wo aake itna roi, itna roi ki ‘main aap log ki purani gang hu aur aapne kaise isko lelia’. Rona dhona hua uska. To maine aur director ne socha chalo theek hai, little bit of loyalty we owe to her.”

Raveena went on to laughingly add that the hero came back to her requesting to rejoin the film after the woman dumped him.
“The best part was she dumped that hero after a few years and he came to me, ‘arey uski film thi yar, tu please abhi mere liye karde, wo beech me chhod ke chali gai (It was her film but please you do it for me, she has quit in between).’ Maine kaha main to tereko pahle se bolti thi ki uski fitrat hi aisi hai (I told him that I had already warned you about her nature). It was very funny actually. It didn’t make a difference to me because to a certain extent, I do believe that there is a certain path your destiny has to follow.”
The film industry and its crazy ways!
