Raveena Tandon on life before fame, speaks about days as an intern

Raveena Tandon

Raveena Tandon, despite coming from a film family, begun her career as an intern with ad-man Prahlad Kakkar and that's when she realised her passion for modelling and acting.

In a special conversation with mid-day.com, for 'Flashback with the stars,' the actress revealed, "I started from cleaning the studio floors to wiping off vomit from the floors, and I did assist Prahlad Kakkar I think it was straight out of 10th Standard. Even at that time they used to say what are you doing behind the screen, you have to be in front of the screen, that is what's meant for you and I would be like 'No no, me an actress? Never.' So I am in this industry actually by default, never grew up thinking that I am going to be an actor."

Speaking of how her interest in modelling and acting developed, Raveena added, "When a model would not turn up on Prahlad's set, he used to say 'Call Raveena,' he would ask me to do my makeup and start posing. So, I thought if I have to do it why should I do it for Prahlad for free, why not make some pocket money out of it! Then I kept getting film offers and I had no acting training, no dancing training, no dialogue delivery training."
