Actor Raveena Tandon faced a chaotic and violent event in Bandra late Saturday night. Following accusations that her driver was involved in foolish driving, a crowd confronted Tandon, accusing her of abusing and assaulting women at the scene.

The situation escalated as locals and the alleged victims surrounded Tandon.
One woman, with blood loss from her nose, claimed that Tandon had beaten her. Amid the commotion, people so-called the police, and some in the mob could be heard urging others to “Hit her.”
