Bollywood’s 90s darling Raveena Tandon found herself embroiled in drama after a viral video on X showed a mob accusing her driver of a road rage incident in Mumbai’s Bandra. It also depicts Tandon being attacked by the group outside her house.
After the video was released, there were reports of a police complaint against the actress and her driver, alleging that the pair were under the influence. However, an extensive investigation, which included a review of CCTV footage of the incident, revealed that none of the complainant’s family members were injured or touched the car in question. Police said the case was false and said neither the actor nor the driver was drunk with Tandon facing no charges, as reported by the Hindustan Times.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Rajtilak Roshan, in a statement to NDTV India, gave details of the incident. Tandon was returning home to Bandra in her car, driven by her driver. CCTV footage showed the driver reversing the car while driving it into her home. A group of women passing by reportedly asked him to be careful, saying he could have hit someone.
“The complainant made a false complaint in the alleged video. We checked the entire society’s CCTV video and found that the actor’s driver was reversing the car from the road into the society when this family was crossing the same lane. The family stopped the car and told the driver that he should check if there were people behind the car before reversing and an argument started between them,” the DCP said.
Tandon then came out of her house to help her driver. By this time, the women’s relatives had gathered. In the video, relatives claimed the driver hit some of the women, with one woman claiming a nosebleed. Tanton tried to calm them down, but they pushed him away, pleading, “Don’t hit me.”
The DCP further clarified, “This argument escalated into abusive language. The actor tried to protect the driver from the mob. however, the mob began abusing her. Both Tandon and the family went to the Khar police station and lodged written complaints. Later, they both submitted letters stating that they did not want to file complaints.”
