MUMBAI - Bollywood actress Raveena Tandon is all set to make her comeback in Bollywood with a woman-oriented film titled ‘Agni - The Fire’.
Directed by Rajeev Walia, the movie also stars newcomers Jeetendar Modi, Archana Gupta and Eva Grover.
Producer V. Kumar appeared pleased with Tandon’s return, as he said the actress has returned with a more appealing personality, which can do justice to her character.
“The movie that we were making, we felt that compared to Raveena in her earlier films, now she has come back with a better personality. So we thought of casting her as she can do justice to the character she is playing in the film,” said V. Kumar.
The official launch of the film, which is set in the backdrop of rural Rajasthan, took place in Mumbai on Monday.
The National Award-winning actress is back to pursuing her acting career after her marriage with film distributor, Anil Thadani, in 2004.
“The story of the film is set in rural Rajasthan. So I have been given the get-up according to that. Although the film is not like ‘Godmother’, it is the story of a woman who raises her voice against orthodox traditions,” said Tandon.
In 2002, Tandon won the National Award for Best Actress for her performance in ‘Daman’ as a victim of marital violence in 2001. (ANI)
