Raveena Tandon is one of the most gorgeous divas in Bollywood. She made her debut in the 90s, and went on to create a charismatic name for herself in the industries. Being a leading lady for some of the most popular male actors in films, she contributed to some of the most iconic films, such as Dilwale, Akhiyon Se Goli Maare, Laadla, Main Khiladi Tu Anari and so many others. However, despite being such a phenomenal actress, she often hit the headlines back in the days for her apparent bitter catfight and competition with her competitor, Karisma Kapoor. And now, she opened up about the same.
Raveena Tandon reveals losing out on films due to competition with Karisma Kapoor
In a recent interview with Lehren Retro, Raveena Tandon recalled her feud with contemporary actress, Karisma Kapoor and revealed how their competition took a toll on her film career. Citing aspects of groupism and politics within the film fraternity, she mentioned how she was replaced at the last minute in big films like Saajan Chale Sasural and Vijaypath, since the makers gave it out to Karisma. She mentioned:
“I have always believed in healthy competition because that brings out the best in you. But I am not a cutthroat person, nobody can say Raveena got me removed from a project or Raveena refused to work with a newcomer. I have never done that kind of politics and groupism but others have blatantly done politics against me. I was supposed to do Saajan Chale Sasural with David Dhawan and Govinda and they told me this later. I had even signed Vijaypath, I lost the film.”
