Raveena is Rahul Mahajan's didi

Rahul Mahajan's 'Rahul Dulhaniya Le Layenge' not only will help him get a bride but has actually landed him with a sister, even before the show starts.Raveena Tandon will perform the role of the didi. Raveena is being paid a whopping figure to lend her moral support to Rahul Mahajan and his quest for the perfect bride.

The TV channel has roped in Raveena to play Rahul Mahajan's sister.Ravi Kisen, who played Rakhi Sawant's brother, in 'Rakhi ka Swayamwar' ended up hosting another show on the channel, Raaz Pichle Janam Ka.

Raveena was last seen as a judge on two children'shows.For the current show,with five lakhs for being didi to Rahul Mahajan,she will be the world's best sister.

"Raveena has asked for a whopping Rs 30 lakh and the channel is offering her Rs 25 lakh for the episode," says a source. "She normally charges around Rs 8 lakh an episode if it is a running show."

Shailaja Kejriwal, EVP Content of the channel confirmed that talks are on with her at the moment, but nothing is confirmed yet.

And if she has her way, she would be the highest paid actress on TV. Incidentally, Bipasha Basu who is going to be seen on a show produced by Red Chillies, has also asked for a similar amount and is being paid less than what she has asked for.
