Actress Raveena Tandon shared that she is best friends with her children and that it helped her build a relationship with her on-screen son in the show “Patna Shuklla.” Raveena Tandon who plays the character of Tanvi Shukla, said: “There is an instance in the film where Tanvi’s son forgets his lunchbox, she chases the school bus to deliver it midway. I think that is one scene every mother will relate to.” “Every house has chaotic mornings but a mother will cut through the chaos and come through for her children and that is something even I have personally done when my children were going to school.” She then went on to share details about the relationship she shares with her daughter Risha and son Ranbir.

“I’m best friends with my kids and the same dynamics we’ve portrayed on screen with Tanvi’s son. Bringing that chemistry on screen with Patna Shukla brought back some lovely memories for me with my children. I’m sure the audience will feel the warmth and pure friendship that Tanvi and her son share.”

“Patna Shuklla” is based on a fearless lawyer who takes matters into her own hands when she sees a student entangled in an education scam, and soon realises that she is pitted against a Chief Minister candidate.  “Patna Shuklla” will be streaming on Disney+ Hotstar from March 29.  Meanwhile, Raveena Tandon recently treated fans to beautiful pictures of herself wearing a floral dress, and said she is feeling like a “gulaab gulaab bo.”

Taking to Instagram, Raveena, who has 8.5 million fans shared a string of photos, wherein she can be seen wearing a pink and white floral short dress. She opted for a subtle makeup look -- pink lips, kohl-rimmed eyes, and blushed cheeks. Her hair is tied in a ponytail, and rounded off the look with brown wedge heels. The post is captioned as: “Hot summer days! Feelin like gulaab gulaab bo....”, followed by a red heart emoji.

In the meanwhile, Vivek Budakoti, the director of the upcoming Raveena Tandon-starrer streaming film “Patna Shuklla,” has shared that writers and directors can only provide words or the crack the right situation but ultimately it’s the actor who has to breathe life into a character and make it believable on the screen.  The director spoke about his experience of working with actress Raveena Tandon on the film. The actress plays the titular role in the film of a lawyer, who goes above and beyond her duty to help a student fight a scam in the education system. Elaborating on the same, Vivek said: ”It was quite a wonderful experience. Never for a moment did I feel that I was working with a star. She became part of the entire process, by blurring the lines between herself and Tanvi Shukla. As writers and directors we can provide words, but it is the actor that provides meaning to those words by infusing life into it.”
