MUMBAI : Actress Raveena Tandon was recently involved in a road rage incident in Bandra, Mumbai, where a man claimed that her driver hit his mother and the actor assaulted her in a drunken state; however, days later, she was given a clean chit by the police.
The viral video from Mumbai's Bandra was shared on social media by a user claiming to be a freelance journalist on June 2. In a new report by Hindustan Times, the actress sent a defamation notice to the journalist who posted the video on X.
Lawyer Sana Raees Khan, who is representing Raveena, said, "Recently, an attempt was made to embroil Raveena in a false and frivolous allegation, which was clarified in CCTV footage and the allegation was withdrawn. However, a person, claiming to be a journalist is disseminating false information on X regarding the said incident, which is factually incorrect and misleading."
