Born Oct 26
The ravishing Raveena Tondon - Bolywood's Blonde - was born on 26 Oct 1974. She is the daughter of Bombay film industry (Bollywood) director Ravi Tandon. Raveena dropped out of Bombay's Meethibai College to pursue a career as a model with middling success. She made her movie debut with the flop Pathar Ke Phool (1991) for which she bagged "Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut" in in 1991. Her next few films were also failures and it was only with Andaz Apna Apna (1994) that she tasted success. Mohra (1994) made her a superstar all set to become Bollywood's reigning actress. However she then began a tangled affair with co-star Akshay Kumar. All her films flopped and her arch-rival Karishma Kapoor had her fired from some top films. By the end of 1995 her career was in tatters and she was reduced to the level of a starlet doing bit roles. Her career revived with a huge hit Ziddi (1997) and she now is again a top rung star.
She has recently set up her own TV production unit RT Video. She was offered Rani Mukherjee's role in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and was offered Karishma Kapoor's role in Dil To Pagal Hai. Raveena Tandon has a perfume named after her marketed by a Swiss firm: it was first marketed in Dubai, UAE in 1996.
