Raveena Tandon Biography
Being
the daughter of erstwhile filmmaker Ravi Tandon, Raveena spent her
childhood close to the razzmatazz of Mumbai’s film world. Once in her
teens Raveena began getting offers from filmmakers chiefly because of
her good looks.
Raveena made her Bollywood debut opposite Salman
Khan in “Pathar Ke Phool” in 1990. Although the film was a flop Raveena
continued to struggle to make her own niche in Bollywood’s big league.
And it was not until “Mohra” that she became famous among the movie
buffs as the ravishing ‘mast mast’ girl.
Raveena has to her
credit many inconsequential flicks like “Taqdeerwala”, “Ziddi”, “Daava”
and “Salaakhein”. But simultaneously she continued to make her
transition from the hip-shaking bimbo to being a sensible actress. She
showed her histrionic skills playing realistic roles in films like
“Shool” and “Ghaath”.
Raveena’s growth as a serious actress
became apparent after she won the National Award as the Best Actress in
2001 for playing the tortured wife in Kalpana Lazmi’s “Daman”.
