The actor shared that the term ‘nani’ is usually associated with someone who might be much older than her, but she became one only due to a small age difference with her adopted daughters. Raveena Tandon on being a nani at age 46 Raveena Tandon shared that the term ‘nani’ is often associated with someone who is 70 or 80, but she had become a nani only because there was just an 11-year gap with her eldest adopted daughter, in an interview with Miss Malini. The actor shared that she was just 21 when she had decide to adopt her late cousin’s daughters, Pooja and Chhaya and the elder one was just 11 at that time. The Andaz Apna Apna star shared that her elder daughter was like a friend, as she has also welcomed her baby now.
