For the unversed, Akshay Kumar and Raveena Randon will be collaborating with each other for the first time in 20 years with 'Welcome to the Jungle'.
“Yes, what’s the big deal? So many relationships break up, people move on, you remain friends… You realise we were not good as partners but we’re good as friends. So what’s the big deal? I don’t understand. I was absolutely fine. The bigger fuss was made in the media, because in those days, they wanted to sell their magazines. But personally, amongst us, between my friends, and what my family thought mattered to me. Beyond a certain point, what people thought did not matter to me," Raveena Tandon said in interview with Barkha Dutt for Mojo Story.
When Akshay Kumar and Raveena Tandon broke up, there were rumours that the actress attempted suicide.
"There was absolutely no control on the kind of stories that would go around. So, the day I got my two girls home… They were not getting the life that they deserved, I felt, and this was something that was happening closer to home, and I decided to take charge. The day I turned 21 I brought them in. I couldn’t watch it unfold in front of me and not do anything," said Raveena.
"That is how I’ve always been, sticking my nose into places where it doesn’t belong," she added.
The actress also said that her two adopted daughters were mainly brought up by her parents, and that this helped bring up her two biological children with husband Anil Thadani.
Earlier, talking about collaborating with Akshay Kumar, Raveena told news agency ANI, "We’ve done maximum hit films together and I am looking forward to starting the shoot (of Welcome to the Jungle) after a long long time and we will be together on the same screen.”
For the unversed, Raveena Tandon and Akshay Kumar have earlier worked together on films such as 'Mohra', 'Main Khiladi Tu Anari', and 'Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi', among others.
