Raveena Tandon has found herself at the centre of a controversy, facing accusations of ‘abusing and assaulting’ several women in Mumbai’s Bandra late on a Saturday night. A video circulating widely on social media shows the actress, dressed in white, surrounded by an angry mob of alleged victims and locals. In the footage, Raveena is seen pleading with the crowd not to ‘hit her’ as she tries to defend herself against their accusations.
The clip reveals a chaotic scene where the mob is visibly agitated, with some individuals calling the police. One woman can be heard shouting, “My nose is bleeding. She (Raveena) assaulted me.” In the midst of the commotion, Raveena is seen asking the onlookers not to record videos of the incident and urging the crowd to refrain from pushing or hitting her. Despite her pleas, the voices of several people screaming “Maaro isko (Hit her)” can be distinctly heard in the background.
According to one of the alleged victims, the situation escalated when Raveena, purportedly in a drunken state, exited her car to defend her driver. The victim claims that during this altercation, Raveena hit the driver’s mother, causing her serious head injuries. This incident has sparked a heated debate on social media, with many people sharing their views and the video spreading rapidly.

On the work front, Raveena Tandon, known for her illustrious career in Bollywood, was last seen in the film "Patna Shukla," where she played the role of a lawyer. The movie, which also starred the late actor Satish Kaushik and Manav Vij, delves into the education scam surrounding roll numbers that affects the lives of countless earnest students in India. Raveena’s portrayal of a determined lawyer fighting against corruption was well-received, making this recent controversy a stark contrast to her professional achievements.
The incident in Bandra has overshadowed her recent work and has placed Raveena in a difficult position as she faces public scrutiny and legal challenges. The situation underscores the complex interplay between celebrity status and personal conduct, with Raveena now having to navigate the fallout from these serious allegations. As the story unfolds, it remains to be seen how these accusations will impact her career and public image moving forward.
