Raveena Tandon reveals she refused selfie with strangers in London, scars of Mumbai’s road rage incident ‘traumatised’ her: ‘My intention wasn’t to offend’

“I withdrew a bit when they asked if I was who I am, and my first instinct was to say no and walk away even faster as I was alone, they just wanted a picture I guess, and I most of the time oblige, but after the incident that happened in Bandra a few months ago, has left me a bit nervous and traumatised,” she wrote.

The actor continued that when she is with people, she feels better but gets “a bit nervous” when she is alone, which is what happened in London. Raveena reflected on the episode and said she should’ve “probably given them a photo” as maybe they were “innocent fans”, but she “panicked and walked away fast”.

Hi , this is just to put on record . That a few days ago in london , I was walking by and a few men approached me, I anyway have heard not such great things about the crime situation here, so I withdrew a bit when they asked if I was who I am, and my first instinct was to say no…

“I just asked a security guy for help. I have felt really bad after this incident and would want to apologise to them through this medium if they are reading, that it was not my intention to offend. I’m really sorry. Hope I can meet you again and click a picture with you maybe. I try my best to be accessible and normal, but I fail at times. So sorry guys. I hope you are reading this and know that I shouldn’t have panicked,” she added.

Earlier in June, a man had claimed that Raveena Tandon’s driver hit his mother and the actor assaulted her in a drunken state. According to police, CCTV footage from the vicinity of the Khar-based building, where the incident occurred, showed that women were in close proximity to the actor’s car but were not struck by it.
