Raveena Tandon’s Driver Accused of Assault Amid Rash Driving Dispute in Mumbai
02.06.2024: A heated confrontation erupted last night outside Bollywood actress Raveena Tandon’s residence in Bandra, Mumbai, over a parking dispute. The altercation has since spiraled into a significant controversy, with accusations of physical assault and reckless driving being levied against Ms. Tandon’s driver.
The incident began when Raveena Tandon’s driver was attempting to reverse and park her car inside her premises. As he maneuvered the vehicle, another car approached the gate, leading to a standoff. Concerned about a potential collision, the occupants of the second car exited their vehicle and confronted the driver.
According to police reports, the situation quickly escalated from a verbal exchange to a heated argument. Hearing the commotion, Raveena Tandon emerged from her house to mediate and calm the situation. Despite her efforts, the confrontation continued for some time before the other party eventually departed.
A video circulating on social media captures the incident, showing accusations against Raveena and her driver for allegedly physically assaulting women, including an elderly lady. One of the women can be heard threatening legal action, stating, “You will have to spend the night in jail. My nose is bleeding.”
The police arrived at the scene after receiving a call about the altercation and conducted inquiries with Ms. Tandon’s staff. Using the vehicle number, they traced the opposing party, who were subsequently summoned to the police station. However, the individuals involved declined to file any formal complaints. No injuries were reported, and there was no collision between the vehicles.
A local resident named Mohammed identified the alleged victims as his mother, sister, and niece. The video also shows Ms. Tandon requesting the individuals to stop filming upon realizing she was being recorded.
As of now, Raveena Tandon has not issued a public statement regarding the allegations. The police have not filed any formal charges and are continuing their investigation into the matter.
