• Shool helped Tandon establish herself as a serious actor and proved her mettle beyond her glamorous image.

Bollywood actor Raveena Tandon recently opened up about the films that changed her acting career. In an interview, she talked about how her roles in Daman and Shool helped her break free from her “Kisi Disco Mein Jaayein” image and established her as a serious actor.

According to Tandon, Daman was a film way ahead of its time. It spoke about marital rape and domestic violence, subjects that were not discussed openly in Indian cinema at the time.

The film’s progressive stance on these issues was a breath of fresh air for audiences, and it helped Tandon establish herself as an actor who could take on challenging roles.

Similarly, Shool, directed by Eeshwar Nivas, was another turning point in Tandon’s career. Although the director was convinced that she was the right person for the role, the producer, Ram Gopal Varma, was not sure.

Tandon’s image at the time was that of a glamorous actor who danced to peppy songs in discotheques. However, her performance in Shool proved her mettle as a serious actor and helped her break free from this stereotype.
