Raveena
Tandon
broke
stereotypes
long
ago
when
she
adopted
two
girls,
Pooja
and
Chhaya
when
she
was
just
21.
Back
then,many
eyebrows
were
raised
over
her
decision
to
be
a
single
mother.
She
was
advised
against
it
by
many
who
believed
that
it
would
be
detrimental
to
her
acting
career.
However,
the
Shool
actress
remained
firm
in
her
decision.
Nine
years
later,
Raveena
got
hitched
to
Anil
Thadani.
Recently
in
a
chat
with
Tweak
India,
the
actress
revealed
that
she
had
set
a
condition
that
she
would
only
marry
a
man
who
would
love
not
only
her
but
her
adopted
daughters
too.
Speaking
about
people's
comments
when
she
decided
to
go
ahead
with
the
adoption
and
how
she
approached
marriage,
Raveena
shared,
"I
think
when
you've
kind
of
made
up
your
mind
and
when
there's
a
will,
of
course
if
you
have
a
certain
stable
backing
from
your
family,
I
think
things
can
be
easier.
Yes,
there
were
moments
where
people
always
thought
that
I'm
taking
on
excess
baggage
because
I
was
not
settled
well
yet
but
my
mantra
was
always
-
if
someone
had
to
love
me,
they
had
to
love
me.
I
come
as
a
package
deal
-
they
have
to
love
me,
my
girls,
my
dogs
and
my
family."
After
tying
the
knot
with
Anil
Thadani
in
2004,
the
couple
welcomed
two
kids,
daughter
Rasha
and
son
Ranbirvardhan.
Meanwhile,
her
adopted
daughters
Pooja
and
Chhaya
also
have
children
on
their
own.
Earlier
in
an
interview
with
MissMalini,
the
Mohra
actress
had
talked
about
being
a
nani
(grandmother)
at
the
age
of
46
and
said,
"Technically,
the
minute
that
word
comes,
people
think
you're
70-80
years
old.
When
I
had
taken
in
my
girls,
I
was
21,
and
my
eldest
was
11.
We
actually
just
have
an
11-year
gap
between
us.
She's
had
her
baby,
so
she's
more
like
a
friend,
but
technically,
I
am
a
mom-like
figure
to
her
in
her
life.
That's
what
equates
to
being
a
grandmom,
so
that's
how
it
is."
Workwise,
Raveena
Tandon
recently
made
her
digital
debut
with
the
Netflix
web
series
Aranyak.
She
will
next
be
seen
in
Yash-starrer
KGF
Chapter
2.
