In
her
recent
tete-a-tete
with
a
magazine,
actress
Raveena
Tandon
recalled
how
an
entertainment
journalism
has
changed
since
she
entered
the
industry.
Raveena
who
herself
is
very
active
on
social
media,
said
that
there
has
been
a
very
positive
change
due
to
social
media,
because
earlier,
actresses
used
to
get
body-shamed,
personally
attacked
and
rumours
were
spread
against
her
without
even
knowing
the
truth.
She
further
told
Filmfare,
“Today,
you
have
social
media
platforms
where
you
can
instantly
put
out
the
truth
along
with
proof.
But
in
those
days,
you
were
completely
at
the
mercy
of
the
editors,
who
had
printed
a
crap
story
and
once
the
headlines
hit,
they
hit
and
your
mental
health
be
damned!”
Recalling
how
false
rumours
about
an
actress’
sister
had
landed
her
into
a
hospital,
Raveena
said,
“I
remember
a
veteran
actress
whose
sister
actually
tried
to
commit
suicide
because
they
wrote
a
story
of
her
trying
to
seduce
her
own
sister’s
husband
which
was
complete
crap!
She
was
in
my
gym
and
I
remember
that
she
ended
up
in
the
hospital
because
of
an
OD
(overdose)
of
sleeping
pills
because
of
that
story.
If
I
could
go
back
and
read
some
of
the
atrocious
shit
that
was
written
about
me,
I
would
want
to
sue
the
pants
off
these
people.”
Raveena
Tandon
Had
Set
This
Condition
Before
Marrying
Anil
Thadani
Raveena
went
on
to
add
that
what
she
found
quite
baffling
was
the
fact
that
women
journalists
who
were
supposed
to
be
‘liberated
women’
used
to
body-shame
other
actresses
left,
right
and
center.
She
further
said
that
she
never
understood
their
double
standards.
She
concluded
by
saying
that
she
was
surprised
to
see
women
doing
bad
to
other
women.
