Early life and background

I never thought I would become an actress. I was an intern at Genesis PR, helping [ad-man] Prahlad Kakkar, when friends and people around me started complimenting my looks. But [photographer-director] Shantanu Sheorey gave me the first break. He called and said he wanted to shoot with me. That was the time when models were becoming actors. I refused film offers. Prahlad kept saying millions of people are waiting for this chance and you keep refusing it. So I thought there is nothing to lose. Then Patthar Ke Phool happened. [12]

Acting career

1991–1999: Leading lady

Tandon debuted with the film Patthar Ke Phool (1991) which was a hit. [13]

In 1994, Tandon had success by appearing in ten features: out of which most of them were successful, and four of the films were amongst the highest grossing productions of the year, namely: Mohra , Dilwale , Aatish , and Laadla . [14] She was nicknamed "Mast Mast Girl" after her performance in song "Tu cheez badi hai mast mast" in film Mohra . [15]

In 1995, Tandon starred with Shah Rukh Khan for the first time in Zamaana Deewana ; the film failed to do well.

In 1998, Tandon reinforced her status as a leading lady by appearing in two critically and commercially successful productions: Dulhe Raja and Bade Miyan Chote Miyan , and both of them proved to be one of the highest-grossing films of the year. Her last release of that year, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan , co-starring Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda turned out to be the second biggest hit of the year. [19] Tandon was offered the second lead in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai which went on to be the biggest hit of 1998, but she turned it down. [20] Her other releases of that year were Gharwali Baharwali , Vinashak: The Destroyer , Pardesi Babu and Aunty No. 1 , some of which were moderate critical and commercial successes. [19]

Her role as a middle-class woman thrust into the world of politics in the former was praised. Critic Taran Adarsh wrote: "Raveena Tandon delivers a bravura performance. The actress takes giant strides as a performer, giving the right touches to her character. Here's a performance that's bound to be noticed".
