In an interview with Lehren, Raveena was asked about her decision not to engage in on-screen kisses during her career. She explained, “Those days there were no contracts or anything. But I never did. I was not comfortable.” Raveena's daughter, Rasha Thadani, is also gearing up to make her debut in Bollywood. When questioned about her stance on her daughter's choices, Raveena stated, “Again it depends. If she is comfortable doing it with someone, then why not. If she is not comfortable, nobody should have the power to force her to do anything that she does not want to do.”

Recalling the incident that left her feeling uneasy, Raveena described, “I remember I was doing a little rough handling scene with a male actor and I remember by mistake his lips just brushed my lips. It was by mistake, it was not even required. Like in that whole frenzy, it was a mistake. I went to my room and threw up because I was so not comfortable. The shot got over and I went up and I had nausea. I could not bear it. I was like ‘yuck no. Please brush your teeth, wash your mouth a hundred times.’” She also mentioned that the actor involved in the incident had apologized.

On the professionalfront, Raveena is set to appear in the highly anticipated film Welcome To The Jungle, which boasts an ensemble cast featuring Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt, Paresh Rawal, Suniel Shetty, Arshad Warsi, and more. The movie is scheduled for a theatrical release on December 20, 2024. Additionally, Raveena has Ghudchadi lined up, where she will share the screen with Sanjay Dutt and Khushali Kumar. She is also set to thrill audiences with the film Alert 24*7, which also stars Sanjay Dutt.
