In an industry where celebrity kids often grow up under the public eye, one might assume everyone knows who’s who. But recently, Bollywood veteran Sanjay Dutt surprised fans and the paparazzi when he failed to recognize the daughter of his former co-star, Raveena Tandon.
The actress’s daughter, Rasha Thadani, has been steadily gaining attention ever since her Bollywood debut earlier this year. While her film didn’t make major waves at the box office, Rasha’s popularity and fan following have soared, making her a rising face in the industry. However, it seems she’s still making introductions—even to some of the industry’s legends.
The Viral Moment: “Who’s Rasha?”
A video currently making the rounds on social media shows Sanjay Dutt leaving a Mumbai restaurant with his wife, Manyata Dutt. As the couple exited, they were greeted by the usual crowd of paparazzi eager to capture a glimpse.
As Dutt casually advised the photographers to go home because of the rain, one of them mentioned they were waiting for Rasha Thadani. Dutt’s response? A puzzled “Who’s Rasha?”
The paparazzi quickly clarified, “Raveena Tandon’s daughter.” That seemed to jog his memory, though not entirely convincingly, as he simply responded, “Ah, okay. Go click her photo.”
Fans Amused, Internet Reacts
The exchange has sparked reactions online, with many finding humor in the fact that Sanjay Dutt, who has starred alongside Raveena in multiple films, didn’t immediately recognize her daughter’s name. The two actors were last seen together in the film Ghudchadhi.
The light-hearted moment ended with Dutt asking the photographers if they’d eaten, before hopping into his car and driving off.
Rasha’s Rise in Bollywood
While the brief confusion might have been awkward, it’s clear that Rasha Thadani is steadily climbing the Bollywood ladder. With more public appearances and increasing media buzz, it likely won’t be long before her name is instantly recognizable—even to industry veterans.
