A day after the news of actor Raveena Tandon getting assaulted in Mumbai, Kangana Ranaut came out in support of the actor who was involved in a scuffle on Saturday night after a man claimed her car allegedly hit his mother. Mumbai Police have denied that the actor’s car hit anyone. The actor and BJP politician took to her Instagram Story to vehemently criticise the incident, calling it “absolutely alarming,” and condemning the “road rage outbursts.” She demanded that the culprits be punished.
“What happened to Raveena Tandon ji is alarming; had there been 5-6 more people in the opposite group, she would have been lynched; we condemn such road rage outbursts; those people must be reprimanded. They must not get away with such violent and poisonous behaviour,” penned the Queen actor.

Mumbai Police have found that the Mohra actor’s car did not hit anyone. According to a statement by DCP Rajtilak Roshan of Zone 9 to PTI, CCTV footage showed that women were near the actor’s car but were not hit. Raveena also took to her X (formerly Twitter) handle to share Roshan’s statement. “The complainant gave a false complaint in the alleged video. We checked the entire CCTV footage of the society and found that the actress’s driver was reversing the car from the road into the society when this family was crossing the same lane. The family stopped the car and told the driver that he should check if people were behind the car before reversing and an argument started between them,” the DCP said in the report.
Raveena came out to help her driver but the argument escalated. She can be heard in the video, saying, “Don’t hit me”.
“This argument escalated into abusive language, and actress Raveena Tandon arrived at the spot to check what had happened with her driver. The actress tried to protect the driver from the mob; however, the mob started abusing her. Both Raveena Tandon and the family went to the Khar police station and gave written complaints. Later, they both also submitted letters stating they did not want to register any complaints,” DCP Rajtilak Roshan said, adding, “Nobody was injured in this incident. We checked the CCTV footage, and the car did not hit anyone. The actress was not drunk.”
Earlier, the Mumbai Police said none of the parties filed complaints. “Tandon’s driver was trying to reverse the car to park it, and three people from a family felt that they would get hit. After the argument, both parties left, and later, police reached the spot and questioned Tandon’s staff. The other party was also called to the Police station. Both parties denied making any complaints.”
