Raveena Tandon opened up about refusing to star in a Shah Rukh Khan film that she was offered as she didn’t find the costumes comfortable to work with. She didn’t take the name of the film and didn’t delve into more details. The two starred together in the 1995 film Zamaana Deewana.

In an interaction with Filmfare, Raveena said, “It was with Shah Rukh Khan and I had almost signed it till the time came to discuss the costumes. The costumes were really weird. It wasn’t something I would be comfortable wearing. I thought it was a little too objectifying. I said, ‘No sorry, I can’t'."

When Shah Rukh asked her why she made the decision, she had explained her apprehensions to him. She added, “SRK (Shah Rukh Khan) said, ‘Are you mad? Why are you saying no now?’ because we were already doing a film with the most amazing music called Jaadu. And we were doing Zamaana Deewana and we really used to get along. SRK is one of the wittiest, warmest, and gentlemanly co-actors to work with. He is decent to the core. And I told him I can’t wear that stuff... 'I'll feel funny, I'll feel strange'.”

Raveena was last seen in the romantic-drama, Ghudchadi, which also starred Sanjay Dutt. It was released on JioCinema on August 9.
