The Khiladi of Bollywood – Akshay Kumar, was a Khiladi off-screen, too, and it always found its way into juicy tabloids. Before his marriage to Twinkle Khanna, Akshay Kumar was in relationships with many actresses. Akshay’s steamy affair with Raveena Tandon was one of the most talked-about relationships in the industry.
While Akshay might refute the rumors and allegations, he betrayed the Raveena during his three years with her. Raveena was very open about her relationship and was smitten with his love. In the 90s, both the actors had worked in many films together, and their on-screen chemistry was rife. Previous reports suggested that the duo secretly got engaged. However, even at the peak of her career, Raveena Tandon, a household name due to her string of hits, was ready to give up films as Kumar wanted her to be a housewife.
While the couple’s engagement brought happiness to their fans, things took an ugly turn for the duo. Akshay Kumar’s flirtatious nature was well known in the industry. Due to his philandering ways, the couple parted ways in 1998. In her interview with Stardust in 1999, Raveena revealed that she caught Akshay openly flirting with Shilpa Shetty and was rumored to be dating Rekha. Further, in a shocking statement, Raveena stated that she didn’t blame any other woman for her break-up since it was her man who was not loyal.
Akshay Kumar chose to maintain silence for a long time, but during his interview with Rediff, the actor confessed his engagement with Raveena. Kumar also claimed that he maintained a cordial
relationship with Raveena even after breaking up. Later, Raveena Tandon happily married Anil Thandani, and Akshay tied the knot with Twinkle Khanna.
