Bollywood’s most beautiful, Raveena Tandon just spilled the beans on turning down the iconic role that could have been hers in Karan Johar’s cult classic, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (KKHH). In a recent conversation with Hindustan Times, Raveena dished out the deets on Karan Johar’s lingering grudge and her exciting journey into the world of OTT.
Even 25 years after its release, KKHH remains a love-soaked treasure for Bollywood aficionados. Starring Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, and Rani Mukerji, the movie defined an era of love, heartbreak, and, of course, friendship! But did you know, Raveena Tandon was initially in the running for Rani Mukerji’s role? In a candid revelation, Raveena spilled the beans on Karan Johar’s eternal grudge for her KKHH snub.
Karan Johar got angry at Raveena Tandon after she rejected Kuch kuch hota hai?
In a no-holds-barred chat, Raveena laid it bare, sharing, “Till date, Karan (Johar) holds me accountable for not doing Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (Rani Mukerji’s part). I was like, ‘Yar tu mujhse aur kuchh bhi kara le (Offer me something different).’” Ah, the sass is real! She even spilled the tea about a missed Dharma film with Varun Sood that never quite took off.
Raveena didn’t stop at KKHH regret, she had her eyes set on something revolutionary. While she found the script of Sushmita Sen’s Aarya thrilling, our girl wanted to blaze a trail of her own. Enter Aranyak, her digital debut, promising a Raveena like never before.
Karmma Calling
As the anticipation hits the roof, Raveena gears up for the release of her upcoming series, Karmma Calling. She steps into the shoes of Indrani Kothari, a force to be reckoned with – a strong and powerful woman. Directed by Ruchi Narain, Karmma Calling begins its electrifying stream on Disney+Hotstar from January 26.
