# Bollywood's Playful Spy Games: Karisma Kapoor's Secret Mission on Andaz Apna Apna Set! Imagine the glitz of 90s Bollywood sets, where comedy reigned supreme—but off-camera, a dash of diva drama added extra spice. Costume designer Ashley Rebello recently spilled the tea: Karisma Kapoor sent spies to check out Raveena Tandon's stunning yellow nightgown in the song *Yeh Raat Aur Yeh Doori* from the cult classic *Andaz Apna Apna*.[1][2]

Rebello, who crafted that eye-catching outfit (complete with two or three changes for the song's night sequences), shared how word spread like wildfire about Raveena's alluring look. "She (Karisma) would send somebody or the other to see what Raveena was wearing. Apparently, word had got around that Raveena's look was stunning in that nightie," he recalled in interviews.[1][2][5] The buzz even led to a cheeky message from Karisma: "Wow, what a nightgown he has made, can he make something like that for me too?"[1] This fun anecdote ties into the film's legendary behind-the-scenes lore. Amid rumors of a feud—fueled by career rivalries and links to Ajay Devgn—the two leading ladies reportedly weren't on speaking terms, avoiding eye contact and shooting scenes with mirrors.[3][4] Director Rajkumar Santoshi famously intervened by tying them to a pole during a climax scene, forcing them to hash it out. It worked, and they wrapped the shoot professionally.[3][4] Years later, both stars have laughed it off as youthful antics, proving time heals all catfights (or wig-throwing spats from other films like *Aatish*).[4] *Andaz Apna Apna*'s re-release after three decades has reignited nostalgia, reminding us why 90s Bollywood was pure magic—hilarious on-screen, delightfully dramatic off it.[1][2] Rebello called the experience "so much fun," and it's easy to see why these stories keep fans hooked. What do you think—was this spy game friendly rivalry or fierce competition?
