Raveena Tandon cleared of allegations in Bandra road rage incident

Weeks following the eruption of a road rage video featuring Bollywood star Raveena Tandon, the actor has been absolved of all accusations by multiple parties, including the Mumbai police, CCTV evidence, and eyewitnesses. The incident, which unfolded in Mumbai's Bandra locality, garnered widespread attention as Tandon was heard pleading, "Please don’t hit me," while attempting to shield her driver from a family's alleged assault, claiming they were hit by her car.

Despite the video sparking intense scrutiny from fans and critics alike, subsequent investigations have vindicated Tandon. CCTV footage from June 1 conclusively demonstrated that no one sustained injuries from Tandon's vehicle, with police confirming her driver's responsible and non-rash driving. Furthermore, the footage revealed that the altercation ensued when Tandon's driver was manoeuvring to park outside a bungalow, prompting a confrontation with three women and a man who believed they had been struck.

Contrary to the complainant's assertions, law enforcement verified that neither Tandon nor her driver were under the influence of alcohol during the incident. Eyewitness testimony corroborated Tandon's sobriety and refuted claims of erratic driving. Reportedly, when the commotion escalated, Tandon prioritised safety, instructing her driver to seek refuge indoors—a move discrediting rumours of his escape.

In the aftermath, both parties involved in the altercation submitted statements to the Khar police station, yet no formal complaints have been lodged.
