Raveena Tandon on her character in Netflix’s Aranyak: ‘She's maternal, nurturing but torn between job and family’

Firstpost  

Raveena Tandon made her mark as a successful mainstream heroine in the ’90s. To play someone who is this talented, fierce, passionate cop, she is pahadi, she has a brain and she is brawny as well…it was just a complete mix of who I am a little bit and the character that Kasturi Dogra is,” says Tandon. Incidentally, the series has been co-produced by Sippy films and 30 years back Tandon had made her film debut with Patthar Ke Phool which also came from the Sippy stable. Tandon may have been part of big commercial blockbusters but the actress often tried to shake off the masala tag and made a conscious decision of being part of ‘meaningful’ cinema like Satta, Shool, and Daman, a film that deals with marital violence for which she won a National award. Though Tandon didn’t find much difference in the shooting process between films and OTT, she definitely felt the advantages in portraying her character for the series.
