Both Akshay and Raveena even got engaged to be married secretly in a temple. In a chat show, Aranyak actress had said that his family came from Delhi and even the elders of his family had put a red dupatta on her head. As reported by Cosmopolitan, she said, “It was a voluntary decision. I was engaged to somebody I knew. This is what I wanted, to lead a very normal life. I quit in advance before marriage because we did think that when there will be last day of my shoot, we will go ahead and get married. Once I re-started my career, he again said that leave it and we will go ahead with the wedding. But, then I told him that once I chose you over my career, but now I will choose my career over you.”

“There was a very elaborate engagement ceremony. With the pandit doing pooja and everything. His family had flown down from Delhi, my family came from Delhi. One of his elders had put a red dupatta on my head, and I think that was mistaken to be a wedding,” Raveena Tandon added.

However, they parted ways in 1998. For a long time, Akshay Kumar maintained silence over his engagement, wedding and break-up reports but during a conversation with Rediff, the superstar had confessed their engagement reports. He said, “It was only an engagement which broke up later. But excuse me, we were not married at all.”

Khiladi Kumar also claimed that they maintained a cordial relationship even after their break-up. “In fact, I’ve been shooting for a long time with Raveena even after we broke up,” he said.
