Raveena Tandon revealed that she was originally offered the role that Juhi Chawla eventually played in the 1993 film *Darr* but declined it due to discomfort with certain scenes, especially those involving swimming costumes and on-screen intimacy. She described herself as reserved at that time and was uncomfortable with the physical proximity required in such sequences. Despite appreciating the script wasn't vulgar, these costume and scene requirements led her to step back from the role. Raveena also mentioned turning down other Shah Rukh Khan films for similar reasons involving costumes and scenes[1][3]. She and Shah Rukh Khan did later work together in films like *Zamaana Deewana* (1995), and both have spoken warmly of each other[2][3].
