Karisma Kapoor and Raveena Tandon didn’t get along well on the sets of Andaz Apna Apna. This is a revelation made by many, including their co-star Aamir Khan. The cold war between the leading ladies wasn’t casual.
As the cult comedy re-released in theatres on April 25, costume designer Ashley Rebello recalled curating Raveena’s looks for the film. Ashley Rebello on Karisma, Raveena cold war In a statement, Ashley said, “I was working with Preeti Sinha's father Vinay Kumar Sinha. He was a damn sweet man.
In those days, you had to work in tandem with the producer, the director, and of course, the actor. There were also three other main actors and several character actors involved. So, I remember the first thing I designed a nightgown for Raveena Tandon for the song 'Yeh Raat Aur Yeh Duri', and for that, I did two or three outfit changes for her as the sequences were spread across different parts of the night.

So, she would send somebody or the other to see what Raveena was wearing.
Apparently, word had got around that Raveena’s look was stunning in that nightie. Raveena is a very attractive girl, and I think it was a yellow color nightgown that she wore in that song. So, at one point, someone even passed on a message from Karisma saying, ‘Wow, what a nightgown he has made, can he make something like that for me too? It was so much fun working on that film,” Rebello added.
Aamir Khan says...
In a previous interview with India Today, Aamir spoke about Raveena and Karisma’s cold war on Andaz Apna Apna sets. He said, “We had a lovely time. Also, have to say it was also a tough time because I was the only actor who used to come on time.
Karisma aati thi toh Raveena chali jati thi. Bahut mushkil se woh film bani thi (Karisma used to come for shoot and leave, and then Raveena would come. It was a challenge to shoot it).
” The actor further shared, “Don't know if I should say this. Raveena and Karisma ka anban chal raha tha. Main sochta tha ki ye film kaise khatam hogi.
Ek saath log shoot nahi kar paa rahe the (Raveena and Karisma were having some conflicts. I used to think how this film would ever be completed. People didn't want to shoot with each other).
But I really believed in that film. It was so wacky and mad. We were at our peak, Salman and I, at the time.
But the film didn't even run for a week. I was flummoxed, because I thought it was a great film. But now I believe it is the number one film in home entertainment.
Every generation has seen it, every generation wants to see it.” Andaz Apna Apna, co-starring Salman Khan, re-released in select theatres. Get Latest News Live on Times Now along with Breaking News and Top Headlines from Bollywood, Entertainment News and around the world.
