When mast mast girl, Raveena Tandon said she has left her jhatka-matkas behind her, she meant it.

This is evident from her look in her latest movie, The Laboratory for which she is currently shooting in Kolkata.

The 35-year-old mother of two, who is married to film distributor Anil Thadani, is shooting for the bilingual movie (Bengali and Hindi) which is based on a story written by Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore. Raja Sen (not to be confused with the critic of the same name) is directing it.

The movie tells the story of an uneducated Punjabi woman, Sohini (Raveena) who gets married to a Bengali scientist, who dies soon.

How the woman decides to educate herself and ensure her husband's works live on is what makes up the rest of the story.
