In a recent podcast interview that is trending today, Raveena Tandon revealed that she personally called Yami Gautam to offer a playful "apology"—not for something she did wrong, but because she had fallen in love with Yami's husband’s work.
Here is the breakdown of the sweet exchange that has the industry smiling.
The "Apology": "You Have to Share Him!" 📞
The Context: Raveena Tandon recently watched the blockbuster film 'Dhurandhar' (released Dec 2025), directed by Yami’s husband, Aditya Dhar.
The Call: Blown away by the film, Raveena felt compelled to call Yami immediately.
The Quote: Raveena recounted her words to Yami:
"I called Yami Gautam and said, 'I am sorry. I am the biggest fan of your husband. You have to share my attention with your husband because I think he is completely it.'"
The Meaning: The "sorry" was a cheeky way of telling Yami that she now has competition for her husband's attention because Raveena has become his "biggest fan."
Why Was Raveena So Impressed? 🎬
Raveena, who ruled the 90s with commercial mass entertainers, praised Aditya Dhar for bringing that specific energy back to Bollywood.
The "Hero" Factor: She credited Aditya for reviving the "larger-than-life hero" in Hindi cinema, comparing Dhurandhar to mass phenomena like KGF and Pushpa.
Her Verdict: She stated, "He completely brought back what was missing... The audience got satisfaction... The hero is coming out as a hero."
The Film in Question: 'Dhurandhar'
Director: Aditya Dhar (of Uri: The Surgical Strike fame).
Cast: Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal.
Status: The film has been a massive box office success (grossing over ₹1300 Crore worldwide) and is currently trending on OTT platforms, which is likely where Raveena caught it.
SantaBanta Verdict:
In an industry often riddled with ego clashes, it is refreshing to see a senior superstar like Raveena Tandon pick up the phone just to heap praise on a younger contemporary's work. Yami Gautam surely didn't mind this particular "apology"!
