00:00 No, I don't think films was ever in my mind, ever.

00:03 I never grew up saying I want to become an actor.

00:06 Or neither did my parents ever think,

00:07 well, she'll grow up and get into the movies.

00:09 So it was very unexpected when people started calling dad

00:13 and telling him that, you know, we want to sign Raveena.

00:15 We want to sign Raveena.

00:16 And I started getting ad films.

00:18 And I started working with Prahlad.

00:20 And from there onwards, I started

00:22 getting a lot of film offers.

00:24 So in fact, there was a time when I think

00:26 Maheshji just launched Pooja.

00:29 And a lot of people would ask my dad,

00:31 why don't you launch Raveena?

00:32 And he would look at me and say, but I don't think even

00:36 she wants to become an actress.

00:38 And in fact, there were a lot of movies that I said no to.

00:42 that maybe this is my destiny because people struggle

00:46 and struggle so hard to get into this.
