Co-stars getting entangled in romance have been there ever since Hindi cinema's inception. Actress Raveena Tandon, more than her professional life, had made headlines for her affairs.

Her relationship with Akshay Kumar is quite famous, but many aren't aware that she was deeply in love with Ajay Devgn at one point. However, rumours were abuzz in the 90s that Ajay allegedly broke up with Raveena after falling in love with another actress.

Reports even suggested that this resulted in a heated feud between Ajay and Raveena, with the latter taking an extreme step like suicide.

On the occasion of Raveena's 49th birthday, let's take a look back at this throwback story.

Ajay Raveena relationship

Ajay and Raveena's romantic involvement dates back to 1994, when both starred opposite in Dilwale. Tabloids were abuzz with their rumoured romance. But the headline-grabbing moment arrived when Ajay dumped the "Mast Mast Girl" for Karisma Kapoor. Soon after their tumultuous split, the two actors got involved in a nasty war of words.

Raveena, in several interviews, claimed that Ajay and she exchanged affectionate letters during the time of their relationship, which she could use to substantiate their love affair. However, Ajay denied her claims and advised her to consult a psychiatrist. He even asked her to publish those letters.

Ajay advised Raveena to see a psychiatrist

In an explosive interview with Filmfare in 1994, Ajay revealed that Raveena was his sister's friend, and he was never close to her. Commenting on Raveena's suicide attempt, Ajay called it a publicity gimmick.

"Everyone knows that she is a born liar, that's why her silly statements don't upset me too much. But, this time she has gone too far, she has crossed the limits of decency," he had said.

He then added, "It's high time I gave her some advice. This girl must go to a psychiatrist immediately to get her head examined. Otherwise, she will land up in a lunatic asylum. I'm quite willing to accompany her to the shrink's office."

Well, both actors are now happily married and have a prosperous family and career.

Raveena and Ajay have worked in several superhit films together, including Dilwale, Gair, and Divya Shakti, to name a few.
