Raveena continued to mention that those who disclose the truth are condemned. She said:
“When you speak the truth, you are branded a liar, mad, psychotic. Chamcha journos write pages & pages destroying all the hard work that you might have done.”
Raveena Tondon added that despite being “born in the industry” she was faced with hardships. She said:
“Even though born in the industry, grateful for all it has given me, but dirty politics played by some can leave a sour taste.”

The actress emphasised the need to “fight back” against the injustice. She wrote:
“It can happen to someone born within, an “insider” as I can hear insider/outsider words, some anchors blaring away.
“But you fight back. The more they tried to bury me, the harder I fought back.
“Dirty politics happen everywhere. But sometimes one roots for good to win and Evil to lose.”

“I love my industry, but yes, the pressures are high, there are good people and people who play dirty, there are all kinds, but that’s what makes the world.
“One has to pick up the pieces, walk again and again, with the head held high. Goodnight world. I pray for a better tmrw.”
