The new millennium brought out a new shade of this versatile actress.

Following her annus mirabilis, Tandon continued to churn out one hit after another, like &lsquo;Khiladiyon Ke Khiladi&rsquo; and &lsquo;Rakshak&rsquo;, &lsquo;Ziddi&rsquo;, &lsquo;Aunty No.1' and &lsquo;Gharwali Baharwali&rsquo;, &lsquo;Dulhe Raja, &lsquo;Bade Miyan Chote Miyan&rsquo; and several other romantic comedies.
