Unknowingly Raveena Tandon has laid open a Pandora's Box. By taking strong legal action against the portal shaadi.com she has egged on a whole lot of stars, aggrieved incensed and affronted by supposed misinformation that's fed to fans the worldover through the computers.

Says Raveena, "Yes, I've sued shaadi.com. It's so weird. But they write anything they want on the websites thinking that a star will never have the time to check it out. Well, now I do visit websites. But I got to know about shaadi.com through a news report in the Times Of India."

"That's when I came to know about the existence of shaadi.com, and that they claimed I had given an interview to a film magazine saying I met my husband (Anil Thadani) through this portal.Which magazine which interview??? I challenge this portal to substantiate what they're claiming. Arrey, the whole world knows how I met Anil."

Raveena's lawyers are currently in the process of filing a legal suite against the portal for damages. Says Raveena, "How can these websites use our names and pictures without our permission? It has to be stopped. And I'm glad I'm initiating the process."

Speaking on Nafisa Ali taking over as chairperson of the Children's Film Society from her, Raveena says, "I don't know what her credentials as a film person are. But Nafisa is a wonderful humanbeing with a track record of social service. And she relates with kids. These are the pre-requisites for the job."
