'Two heroes in one frame': Raveena Tandon shares fond memory of late father Ravi Tandon and Sam Manekshaw

Vicky Kaushal has created quite a stir with his latest release Sam Bahadur, a film based on the life of India’s first Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw. As fans enjoy the actor’s nuanced performance on the big screen, actress Raveena Tandon has shared a memory of her father and it has a connection with Sam Manekshaw. The actress treated her fans to a never-seen photograph, which features her father, the late Ravi Tandon and Sam Manekshaw. The picture was taken on the sets of the 1974 film Majboor, which starred Amitabh Bachchan and Parveen Babi. Along with the picture, she penned a sweet note calling the two distinguished individuals “heroes.” “Two Heroes in one Frame … One, Sam Manekshaw, that to whom this country and its generations will forever be grateful, the Son of our Motherland ..and the Other My Hero, Ravi Tandon, A Son of the Soil, A saviour for many with his social work and my inspiration forever…” the actress wrote, noting that Manekshaw visited her father on the sets of Majboor in 1974.

Soon after the post was shared, many reacted to it. A user wrote, “Oh! Wow… that is special!!”, while another said, “Handsome n great personality… Ravi uncle Sir.” For the unversed, Ravi Tandon was the director of the 1974 film. He is also recognised for some of his best-known works, including Waqt Ki Deewar, Khud-Daar, Khel Khel Mein, and others. That being said, the picture not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a tribute to the latest film Sam Bahadur. Last seen in the 2022 film, _KGF: Chapter 2_ and the 2023 suspense thriller film One Friday Night, Raveena Tandon is now gearing up for her next releases, including the romantic comedy film, Ghudchadi opposite Sanjay Dutt and Welcome To The Jungle co-starring Akshay Kumar. The film also marks her reunion with Kumar after 19 long years.
