Raveena Tandon turned 46-year-old on her birthday today. The ‘Tip Tip’ famed actress is known to have a bold choice in her professional life. She also chose to be bold in real life, when Raveena made some statements after actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case.
After Sushant’s demise on June 14, 2020, under mysterious circumstances, many voiced for his justice, after which various entities – Mumbai Police, Bombay High Court, Bihar Police, CBI, ED, NCB and AIIMS – got involved in the process. During the investigation, ED unearthed a drugs connection with the case, which then opened up a whole new case – the Bollywood drugs nexus. Raveena has spoken about both on a public platform.
While Rhea Chakraborty was arrested and under NCB custody for a long time, actor Kangana Ranaut had accused Bollywood entities of running a mafia. She later even accused the Mumbai Police and Maharashtra Government of being involved and said she feared them.
On seeing the situation, Raveena had shared, “Crushing,Demolishing,Mayhem.Sad Sad.All thats happening.Two women,Two sides,are they being used as pawns to vent out dirty political vendettas?Murder,Nepotism,Suicide,Familym Grief, Mental Health, Mafia, Vendetta, Cops, Journalism, Politics, Drugs, Films. #JusticeForSSR shouldn’t be diluted.”

In an interview with Hindustan Times, she elaborated on the point by saying, “There are politics, I agree. And there are good people and there are bad people. This is what I had written in my tweet also. And there are bad people who do plan your failure; I’ve been through it. They are the ones who would want to see you down and removed from films. It’s literally like classroom politics. They play dirty games,. But people like this are there in every industry. We’re in a high profile glamorous job and the competition is cut-throat, so it gets highlighted.”
She recalled an incident that happened to her and said, “I was doing fittings with the film’s designer for an outfit for the evening mahurat party. At 4pm, I get a call that I’ve been dumped from the movie and I’ve to return the signing amount because the hero’s girlfriend didn’t like me.”
