Why did Raveena Tandon’s name come up in the Kargil war?
Now the question is why Raveena Tandon’s name came up during the Kargil war. Let us tell you that the whole story is related to the then Prime Minister of Pakistan, Nawaz Sharif. At that time, the Indian Army soldiers gave a befitting reply to the Pakistani intruders, but during this time Nawaz Sharif’s name came up. Actually, former Prime Minister of Pakistan Nawaz Sharif had revealed in an interview that Raveena Tandon is his favorite actress. After this, during the 1999 Kargil war, when India and Pakistan were face to face, Pakistani soldiers jokingly demanded to send actresses Raveena and Madhuri Dixit to Pakistan in exchange for the bodies of Indian soldiers.
Indian Army replied
During the Kargil war, the Indian Air Force had given such a reply to the demands of Pakistani soldiers that Pakistan can never forget.
