According to Raveena Tandon, many famous journalists of the 1990s, especially women, were totally 'nasty' towards her. The Andaz Apna Apna actress revealed that she was body-shamed, slut-shamed, and called names by the editors, who had their own 'camps' in the film industry at that time.

"Some of those women editors today play the feminist card. But, I know how nasty they were back then. These are the very people who slut-shamed, body shamed, and called me names. I was called so many things like Amazonian, Thunder Thighs, and Miss Arrogant," recalled Raveena Tandon in her interview with Lehren.

In her interview, Raveena also opened up about her troubled relationship with the media of the 1990s. According to the KGF: Chapter 2 actress, the media at that time was 'terrible', as 'yellow journalism' was at its peak. "They had no morals, no scruples, and no integrity. Luckily, today you have social media where you can put out your case right away in front of your fans. Your statement matters today," stated the actress.

"Earlier, we were at the mercy of the editors, who had their own camps with whom they were close to. They would write only good things about them, not even waiting to find out the truth. Even if they had to issue an apology, it would be a very small line, very obscure on the inside pages," she further added.
